showInventory player          I get the error here   void showInventory player amp  obj         By Johnny  D   this means that player is an datatype and showInventory expect an referance to an variable of type player   so the correct code will be    void showInventory player amp  obj         By Johnny  D     for int i   0  i  lt  20  i              std  cout  lt  lt    nINVENTORY  n    obj getItem i           i            std  cout  lt  lt    t t t    obj getItem i      n           i                 players myPlayers 10        std  string toDo     BY KEATON           std  string commands 5         This is the valid list of commands            help    inv         std  string ans      std  cout  lt  lt    nWhat do you wish to do  n gt  gt         std  cin  gt  gt  ans       if ans    commands 0             helpMenu            return NULL            else if ans    commands 1             showInventory myPlayers 0           or any other index also is not necessary to have an array         return NULL

showInventory player   is passing a type as parameter  That s illegal  you need to pass an object   For example  something like   player p  showInventory p       I m guessing you have something like this   int main        player player     toDo        which is awful  First  don t name the object the same as your type  Second  in order for the object to be visible inside the function  you ll need to pass it as parameter   int main        player p     toDo p       and   std  string toDo player amp  p                    showInventory p
