        System.out.println ("ROCK - PAPER - SCISSORS");
        System.out.println ("This game plays 10 rounds.");

        for (int rnd = 1 ; rnd <= 10 ; rnd++)
        {

            userMove = getUserMove ();
            compMove = getComputerMove ();
            System.out.println ("Computer's move: " + compMove);
            
             winner = determineRoundWinner(compMove, userMove);
             
            
            
           
            if (winner == 1) {
                System.out.println(compMove + " beats " + 
                                   userMove + 
                                   " the computer wins this round.");

In multiple instances I get the feeling you are a new person in Java.
userMove = Console.in.readLine();

That isn't going to do anything. I would suggest you use a Scanner Object to read in from the Console.

            static int determineRoundWinner;String userMove;
                                    String compMove; {


I don't even know what you were attempting to do here. It is supposed to be a static method which looks like:
 static int determineRoundWinner(String userMove, String compMove){
//code here
return whatever;
}


Get an IDE so you can catch errors while you are typing out the code. There are many suggestions but a few that I can think of off the top for new people is BlueJ, Eclipse or NetBeans. Though Eclipse might be a little overwhelming to look at, at first.

I wrote a Java for N00blets tutorial that you should check out if you're having problems on syntax. Also, I wrote one explaining some of the necessary components of a R,P,S game in another tutuorial. Cba to link ya, but look in the java tutorial section or look under my contributions. A lot of people said they helped, so it might help you too. ^__^

Okay, I lied
