noobs needing help

Ok here goes try number two. Thank you for you patience. Also line 43 is the third section down and it is demarcated by a comment. I hope this is right.

Thanx,

from all the geography nuts in this lab.

Hello everyone out there on the internets. Me and my companions are having a very hard time getting this code to work. We keep getting an "illeagal start of an expression error". I have read all of the other posts about this topic and everyone says that this is usually caused by a misplaced curly brace. We are just too inexperinenced to be able to pick this error out any help would be awesome. The error occurrs on line 43 of the following code. Disreguard the commented code it is for another part of the project.

/**

import java.text.*;

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class Lunchoneb {

private static double

appleCost,

appleQty,

breadCost,

breadQty,

cheeseCost,

cheeseQty,

wineCost,

wineQty;

public static void main(String[] args) {

DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#0.00");

Lunchoneb();

{

appleCost = 2.51;

appleQty = 2;

breadCost = 1.89;

breadQty = 2;

cheeseCost = 2.79;

cheeseQty = 1;

wineCost = 29.95;

wineQty = 2;

String yourbudgetString;

double budget;

yourbudgetString = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter Your Budget.", "Budget", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);

budget = Double.parseDouble(yourbudgetString);

}

//Line 43 is below here this is where we are having problems

public static void LunchCost(double totalCost){

//double totalCost;

totalCost = (appleCost * appleQty) + (breadCost * breadQty) + (cheeseCost * cheeseQty) + (wineCost * wineQty);

System.out.println(totalCost);

}

;

//double appleCost = 2.51, appleQty = 2, breadCost = 2, breadQty = 2, cheeseCost = 2, cheeseQty = 1, wineCost = 20, wineQty = 2;

//double totalCost = (appleCost * appleQty) + (breadCost * breadQty) + (cheeseCost * cheeseQty) + (wineCost * wineQty); //Added wine since it was mentioned in class.

//double budget = 74.28;

//double expense = budget - totalCost;

//System.out.println("Price of Apples per pound: $" + df.format(appleCost));

//System.out.println("Price of Bread per loaf: $" + df.format(breadCost));

//System.out.println("Price of Cheese per pound: $" + df.format(cheeseCost));

//System.out.println("Price of Wine per bottle: $" + df.format(wineCost));

//System.out.println("Total Price of all items: $" + df.format(totalCost));

//System.out.println("Your Budget: $" + df.format(budget));

//System.out.println("You have: $" + df.format(expense));

//if (expense < 0) //If statement to determine and display whether you have exceeded your budget.

// System.out.println("You have exceeded your budget.");

//else

// System.out.println("You have not exceeded your budget.");
