here is the code if you cant see it

public class FindunpaidInvoices {
    private final List<Invoice_Consulting__c> invoices;

    public FindunpaidInvoices() {
        invoices = [select Account__c, Invoice_Date__c, Balance_Due__c, from Invoice_Consulting__c = 'Unpaid'];
    }

    public List<Invoice_Consulting__c> getUnpaidInvoices() {
        return invoices;
    }
}

I think you have a comma that shouldn't be there following Balance_Due__c.

ok thanks - new error... "Error: Compile Error: expecting right square bracket, found '=' at line 5 column 98"

heres code: 

 public class FindunpaidInvoices {
    private final List<Invoice_Consulting__c> invoices;

    public FindunpaidInvoices() {
        invoices = [select Account__c, Invoice_Date__c, Balance_Due__c from Invoice_Consulting__c = 'Unpaid'];
    }

    public List<Invoice_Consulting__c> getUnpaidInvoices() {
        return invoices;
    }
}

Hi,

 invoices = [select Account__c, Invoice_Date__c, Balance_Due__c from Invoice_Consulting__c where Name = 'Unpaid'];

you forgot the where criteria and the name of the field for wich the value is 'Unpaid'

Ok.  You need a WHERE in there as well:  Something Like:


invoices = [select Account__c, Invoice_Date__c, Balance_Due__c from Invoice_Consulting__c WHERE Some_Field__c = 'Unpaid'];

Some_Field__c will be replaced with whichever field on your object you are checking.
