Lightbulb Search text beween tags and write to file using awk

Hi Friends,
I have a very big text file, that has code for multiple functions. I have scan through the file and write each function in seperate file. All functions starts with
Code:
BEGIN DSFNC
   Identifier "ABCDDataValidationfnc"

and ends with
Code:
END DSFNC

I need create a file(using identifier) with name ABCDDataValidationfnc.txt and with the content.

Input file

Code:
BEGIN DSFNC
   Identifier "ABCDDataValidationfnc"
   DateModified "2014-03-20"
   TimeModified "15.31.33"
line4,line5,line6.... line 100
END DSFNC

BEGIN DSFNC
   Identifier "XYZvaldationfnc"
   DateModified "2014-03-11"
 line3,lin4,,line5,line6.... line 80,90,150,160..
END DSFNC

I need two output files.
ABCDDataValidationfnc.txt with below content
Code:
BEGIN DSFNC
   Identifier "ABCDDataValidationfnc"
   DateModified "2014-03-20"
   TimeModified "15.31.33"
line4,line5,line6.... line 100
END DSFNC

XYZvaldationfnc.txt with below content.

Code:
BEGIN DSFNC
   Identifier "XYZvaldationfnc"
   DateModified "2014-03-11"
 line3,lin4,,line5,line6.... line 80,90,150,160..
END DSFNC
