The first two are because you have local variables in main( ) with the same names as your functions - the compiler looks to the nearest defined name (the int's), which are not functions.

What are these lines supposed to be doing?

while (depth == 0);

END LOOP (depth == 0);

[dtaylor01]

Ok I see get rid of the repeated int area; and int volume;.
The

while (depth == 0);

is a while/repeat loop so that it continues
until you want it to stop.

The

END LOOP (depth == 0);

is suppose to be the End of the loop structure. Any suggestions with this?

Please dont start 2 threads for the same problem. did you read the comments that were posted in the other thread? http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread159012.html

There is no ending item for a loop in c++. The loop executes a statement, or block of statements. Period.

while (something == true )   //no semicolon here
{
    //do statements here
}  //closing curly brace ends the loop block
