Been at this for over 4 hours and I am completely stumped. I am thinking about scrapping the whole thing and starting a new one, but I am so close. I know it. Here's the error:'CSHARP_UNIT5_DRAFT4.Form1.Debit(decimal)

Code:

What error is it giving you, as what you posted is just a line, not an error message.

public override decimal [b]Debit[/b] (decimal amount)
 {
    return base.Debit(amount + transactionFee);
 }

The problem is in the override decimal Debit. The problem is that I just can't figure out why?! I am going to sleep on it an maybe after some rest I will see the problem. But thank you for the quick response.

Again, that's just the line. What is the actual compiler error?

Never mind, I see what's going on. Your code is quite messed up. You've been declaring classes inside of classes, methods outside of the classes they belong to, and other methods inside the sub-classes rather than outside.

For what you're doing, you should not be declaring one class inside another. That's the first thing to fix. If you need to, break them out across multiple files, but make sure they're not inside of each other. Then make sure the methods are inside the correct classes. Then you'll be fine.

Thank you Curtis. After getting some much needed rest I saw the same errors. Sorry to bother everyone here. I just panicked. Again thank you for the reply.
