Help with a class

SpanishViking13 (14)
Hey everyone! I'm having trouble with my program. It runs... but I can't get it to give me the total when I call it. As far as I can tell, it's only totaling one divisions quarterly sales, not all the divisions. I'm at a bit of a loss, so any help is welcome. It's probably something simple and I'm just stuck in the fish bowl and not able to see the issue...

Here's the header code:

I think you need to return total sales from

void Q();
SpanishViking13 (14)
Can you explain? I thought since totalSales was a static variable, it was accessible to all the other functions. More specifically, to:
double getTCorpSales()
{ return totalSales; }

greenleaf800073 (475)
div[count1].Q(quarter[0], quarter[1], quarter[2], quarter[3]);

This does nothing.

You could do

div[count1] = Q();

Or something like that. When you do, return the total sales in the function.
