                    double sun = Double.parseDouble(sunday.getText());

                    private double sum = mon + tues + wed + thurs + fri + sat + sun;

                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Your total is " + sum + "!", "Total", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);

               }
        }
        //THIS IS THE ERROR^

    }



}

Please help! any ideas will work. I really have no idea what the deal is 🙁

You’re creating an anonymous object inside a method call – make sure you close the method call at the end:

finalize.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
       public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
           // all your stuff
       }
}); // you were missing the ");"
