Check out line 23 - what's that equal sign ("=") all about? Remove that and see what happens.

There is substantially more going on here than just that. The problem is, the OP didn't give us the header, so we don't know how the class is declared. The errors are being reported in the *.cpp file, but I suspect that they are being partially caused by something in the header.

Based on what I'm seeing, I'm guessing the data members aren't declared properly.

as far as I see, he needs == instead of = as he is declaring them as int and double..
Making them equal a number rather than comparing them to true or false.

As for the char* cant be converted to char[30] thats an error on his part at

char* Essential::GetProductDescription() const
{
return (ProductDescription);

What you are referring to is a relational/comparison statement for a conditional. There aren't any conditional statements in the posted code. With exception of Line 23, using '=' is correct. The functions they exist in are constructors. It is appropriate that all the statements are assignment statements.
