Thanks for your valuable inputs.

version : Version M-11/16/88f

I have made minor change to the pattern as well as corrected the typo on the output file and also included sample filenames and the expected output file.

If a filename does NOT match the below pattern and if any of the FileNames contain spaces in them then write an OUTPUT xml file with the FileNames in the below xml format


Code:
Ends with (.abc) and contains (DEF)
Ends with (.abc) and contains (PQR)
Ends with (.xml) and conatins (XYZ)
Starts with (TVS)
Starts with (TVS) and contains(SPR)
Contains(HIJ)


FileNames
Code:
cqa_20180405_tom_DEF.abc
uvw_bs_PQR_041118120208.abc
wvu_XYZ_041118120208.xml
TVS_~tosp.sh
TVS_SPR.txt
HIJ_03_15_2018.xml
LMN.txt
OTS.txt
iws_ eti-.oiy .txt


OutputFile

Code:
<Files>
<FileName>LMN.txt</FileName>
<FileName>OTS.txt</FileName>
<FileName>iws_ eti-.oiy .txt</FileName>
</Files>
