Hello,

Could you please try as follows command. Also let us say we have a fike named test where all data is stored.

Note: Please use code tags it's a good practice, also refer the Forum rules for same.

Code:
$  awk '{ printf "%-30s %-20s %s\n", $1, $2, $3 }' test
TimeStamp="1234567890"         Data="t2u            A
TimeStamp="1234567890"         Data="t2uX           2
TimeStamp="1234567892"         Data="t2u            A
<TimeStamp="1234567892"        Data="t2u            X
TimeStamp="1234567894"         Data="t6u            X
TimeStamp="1374201903"         Data="t6u            A
$

For the pattern you pasted, try this...
Code:
awk '-F"' '{split($4,o,/ /);print NR"."$2" "o[1]" "o[2]" "o[4]}' input_file
