Work through the error messages one at a time. The first error is normally what's wrong. Correct that error then recompile -- you will get a lot fewer error messages that way.

For example: line #2 of the code you posted is probably wrong. System header files are enclosed in < and > brackets, not quotes. #include <iostream>
line 12: you have an extraneous ; just before the += operator

line 13: you used the wrong brace -- should be { instead of }, and your program is missing the matching }

for (int idays = 0);idays;<14;idays +=1)
{
    cin >>  fHoursworked;
    fTotal += fHoursworked;
}
for (int idays = 0);idays;<14;idays +=1)
{
    cin >>  fHoursworked;
    fTotal += fHoursworked;
}

Don't PM me with questions -- you might get a nasty PM in response. If you have a question then post it in one of the forums.

Several syntax mistakes:
1. Missing opening bracket after main()!
2. Missing opening bracket after for (instead you have closing bracket on line 13.)!
3. Missing closing for-bracket.
4. Missing closing main() bracket!
