	    /**
	     * This function is run when the robot is first started up and should be
	     * used for any initialization code.
	     * 
	     */  RobotDrive myDrive, catcherDrive;
	    	Joystick moveStick;
	    	Gyro scotbot;
	    	Solenoid S;
	    	
	    public void robotInit() {
	    	Talon TalLF = new Talon(0);
	    	Talon TalLR = new Talon(1);
	    	Talon TalRF = new Talon(2);
	    	Talon TalRR = new Talon(3);
	    	Talon TalCatcher = new Talon(4);
	    	Talon TalCatcher1 = new Talon(5);
	    	myDrive =  new RobotDrive(TalLF,TalLR,TalRF,TalRR);
	    	moveStick = new Joystick(0);
	    	catcherDrive = new RobotDrive(TalCatcher, TalCatcher1);
	    	scotbot = new ADXRS450_Gyro();
	    	Compressor c = new Compressor(0);
	    	Solenoid S = new Solenoid(1);
	    	
	    }

Is there something very obvious that im missing?

Yes, remember to recognize the scope of your object references. If you declare in robotInit():

Solenoid S = new Solenoid(1);

That object reference "S" only exists inside of the method robotInit(). So, put this code under public class robot {

Solenoid S;

and change your code in robotInit() to:

 S = new Solenoid(1);

Hint*** Do this for all objects ***
