The error I am receiving there is C3867 'Member::getMN': non-standard syntax; use '&' to create a pointer to member'
. Same error for getID,nBks,cost and tcost.
Asking for customers last name and ID number, then the number of books they want and asking for the cost of that book. Must show all info. Not sure where my error really is.
