You have to be more specific on what is wrong with your code. Where is the scope issue?

not sure where I went wrong, or how to fix it
When debugging, always look at the first error:

prog.cpp:331:5: error: expected '}' at end of input

The errors are not always accurate, but they express the gist of what is wrong with your code. In this case it says you're missing '}'.

If you look upward from line 331, you will find that you are missing closing curly braces for your method getFullName.

Try debugging the rest if it isn't solved.

Also, you cannot return multiple things in a method simultaneously.

The below code will always return mm, since returning means you also leave the function at the point of return, and return mm is the first line that returns something.

int getBday(){
        return mm;
        return dd;
        return yy;

Hey DyslexicChicken,

After following your suggestion I was able to fix some of my problems. However I am still having problems with my scope. For example, everything in my default constructor and all of my return statements give me compiler errors, how can I go about fixing my scope problem?
