I'm a complete novice and I'm trying to write a script that will upon selection either:
1. Show the current directory
2. Delete a file
3. Rename a file
This is what I've tried, with no success:

Using vi I created filepro

#!/bin/ksh
cat <<++

MAIN MENU
1) Print current working directory
2) Delete file in current directory
3) Rename file in current directory
++

echo Please enter your selection $LOGNAME:

Chmod 755 filepro
./filepro

Everything appears fine:

MAIN MENU
1) Print current working directory
2) Delete file in current directory
3) Rename file in current directory
Please enter your selection LNOWE:

Until I enter my selection, when selecting 1 I should get the directory instead I get:
1: not found

I’ve tried adding and removing spaces in the main menu. I tried #!bin/bash, #!bin/sh. Adding and removing space between cat <<++.
This is obviously a simple straight forward script. But I can’t seem to get it right. Please help. Thanks!

Sorry if this is not formated properly, haven't figured out the forum posting yet.

Your script does nothing more than printing a few lines and going back to the shell. You have no command to read input, no structure to parse the input and no actions being done after parsing the input.

I recommend to start here first:

To post code on this forum with formatting press the #-button above the text input field, this will bring up [code][/code] tags. Put your code between them.

After I read your post, my lightbulb went off.
Thanks for taking tie to respond to my post!
