not sure how to fix them

MOD EDIT: Added code tags. When posting code...USE CODE TAGS!!!

Well, you have done many wrong things. Some of them include posting code without code tags and posting non-indented code. If you would just properly indent your code, you would see that you have missed one bracket in player1turn. Due to this, it is throwing some errors.

thanks ! sorry quite new to this and coding

The indentation thing might seem trivial but it stops you making mistakes, and makes the code much more readable. If you have an IDE like Code::Blocks or Visual Studio then it shouldn't be too hard to keep code properly indented. One thing that might be confusing is all the different styles and which one is the right one. You realise eventually though the style used doesn't matter so much, but you have to use the same style consistently.

After running your code through Visual Studio's indenter this came out:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstring>
#include <ctime> 
#include <time.h>


using namespace std;


using std::cout;
using std::cin;
using std::endl; 


// variables in the game. 

int player1turn (int) ;
int player2turn (int) ;

int diceroll (); 
const int winscore= 100; 

int main ()

{
	srand (time (NULL));
	int player1score = 0 ;
	int player2score = 0 ; 

	do 
	{
		player1score = player1score + player1turn( player1score );

		cout << " Player 1 total score is " << player1score << endl;

		if ( player1score >= winscore ) 
		{
			cout << "Player 1 has won !! " ;
			return 0;
		}
		player2score = player2score + player2turn(player2score) ;
		cout << "PLayer 2 total score is " << player2score << endl;

		if ( player2score >= winscore)
		{ 
			cout<< "PLayer 2 has won !! ";
			return 0;
		}
	}

	while ( player1score < winscore && player2score < winscore);
}




//The code for the game- allows players to roll the dice and gives them the option to hold or roll again
//Also holds their score

int player1turn (int player1score) 
{
	int thisscore= 0 ;
	int	roll= 0;

	char rOh;

	do
	{
		roll = diceroll () ;
		if (roll == 1 )
		{
			cout << "You have rolled a 1. It's the end of your turn " << endl;
			return 0;
		}
		thisscore = thisscore + roll ;

		cout << "You have rolled a " << roll << " . Your score so far is " << thisscore << endl;

		do

		{
			cout << "Do you want to roll again (r) or hold (h) ? " ;
			cin >> rOh ;

		}
		while (rOh == 'r' );
		if ( rOh == 'h')
			return player1score;
	}



	int player2turn (int player2score) 
	{
		int thisscore= 0 ;
		int	roll= 0;

		char rOh;

		do
		{
			roll = diceroll () ;
			if (roll == 1 )
			{
				cout << "You have rolled a 1. It's the end of your turn " << endl;
				return 0;
			}
			thisscore = thisscore + roll ;

			cout << "You have rolled a " << roll << " . Your score so far is " << thisscore << endl;

			do

			{
				cout << "Do you want to roll again (r) or hold (h) ? " ;
				cin >> rOh ;


				while (rOh == 'r' );
				if ( rOh == 'h')
					return thisscore;
			}

			//Random dice generator
			int diceroll () 

			{
				int roll ;

				roll = ( rand () % 6 ) +1 ;
			}

It shows pretty clearly what's up. There are lots of curly braces not matching up, so functions are being defined in other functions and the file ends with some braces not matched up.

Another little recurring problem is in do-while loops the while bit is in the wrong place. The while statement goes after the closing curly brace of the do loop. Hope this helps.
