Thanks, Keary, that did the trick.
I'm curious, however, what the value of this "Placeholders" feature
is, and how one would use it.
People on other forums have raved about it to me, but they never
explained that the placeholder(s) needed to be replaced before Build
and Go. I'm just wondering what the process would be (and the
potential value for leaving the preference on and using this feature).

Hi, Xcoders, thanks for taking the time to look at this my first
post here. I'm a newbie at Xcode, so I have very simple questions,
but any help from you will be huge, since learning curve is hardest
at the beginning.
Does anyone know about this feature Xcode 3 has where it puts a
blue balloon around things like "float theRadius" so that it's one
piece of code you can easily click on and delete?
I don't know what the official name for this feature is, or how to
disable it, but I need to find out, because these things are
breaking my code. They result in tons of errors, usually starting
with "error: syntax error at "#" token".
It sounds like you are leaving auto-completed argument placeholders
intact. You are supposed to replace these with real values. If you
leave them unchanged, you will get syntax errors. This should only
happen for arguments. You can turn off argument placeholder
insertion in preferences under "code sense". You can still have
autocompletion for methods and identifiers with this off.
