Look at that error message. The answer is starring you in the face.

Take a close look at the following line:
C:\Dev-Cpp\payroll.cpp:24: error: expected `;' before "return"

This should solve all of your problems

> system("pause")
Where's the missing ; here?

Why isn't this code a reply to your other thread containing the same code, which I've just wasted my time responding to :icon_mad:
