    Introduction
    Since the introduction of the concept of an integrated  data base, it has been a constant endeavour of DBMS designers to provide a "good" interfaces to the data base users.  Such attempts have,  however, relied heavily on "the fact that an operating system and a language compiler are available and that they (the DBMS  designers) did not want to tamper with them" (Olle 72),  This attitude  towards DBMS design in general, has resulted in ad-hoc solutions to the data base problem (Park 77) and lacks in a coherent approach  to the issues involved therein.
    Our aim in this report, is to first identify the requirements of a data base user and then to develop a user interface which fulfills theae requirements in a coherent manner.  We feel  that  it  is only then that ue shall be able to equip a data base user  with a data base language in the true sense of the term.
