Hi I am unable to create a script for
login enabling the programme to run without giving the operator access to a shell.

Try restricted shell and add program to ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile.

i am new to UNIX.
what i have done till now is i have created a menu driven programme and now i have to work with further concept that the application has its own status report enabling the programme to run without giving the operator access to a shell. Advancing the concept further the programme could be developed so that it is able to run with a ‘none interactive flag’ – enabling it’s execution to be automated with the resultant file e-mailed to a user perhaps once a day or once a week.

You can't do that until and unless you write your own shell with restrictions in mind.

You need to write your own shell like program in C which cannot be escaped by end user. Shell does not provides this kind of functions.
