[SalesForce] Recieving the following error while trying to comment out Apex Trigger: “Error: Compile Error: Unexpected token ‘‘. at line 65 column 1 “

I am not sure if you know much about SQL, but triggers in SQL and Salesforce work similarly. As the name suggest, a trigger happens when it is "triggered" by something.

If you look in the trigger introductions for Salesforce (link here: https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/Content/apex_triggers.htm )

Quote from the page "Apex triggers can be invoked through the use of triggers. A trigger is Apex code that executes before or after the following types of operations: insert update delete merge upsert undelete"

So then a basic trigger should firstly give the instruction of on what object this trigger respond from, and before or after what kind of event.

EG:

below is a trigger I wrote to update a Monthly Target custom field when a Target Value custom object has a new record created/inserted or updated. The first line, as you can see, starts with trigger, which states that this is a trigger, and then the name of the trigger (I call it UpdateAccountMonthlyTarget - you name yours whatever you like).

Then I state on which object will trigger the trigger. In this case, the two relevant objects are Account and the custom object Target Value. As I stated before, I wanted the trigger to occur when the target value is inserted or updated, so I say on "Target_value__c", using the API name of the custom object. Lastly, as you can see, I state "After insert, After update" because I am stating WHEN I want the trigger to happen.

trigger UpdateAccountMonthlyTarget on Target_Value__c (after insert, after update) {

// create a collection of accounts for saving new Monthly Targets

List accountlist = new List();

//create month and year variables

Date thisDay = Date.today();

Integer Month = thisDay.month();

Integer Year = thisDay.year();

// iterate through new Target_Value record created

for (Target_Value__c tv : trigger.new) {

      if ((tv.Year__c==thisDay.year()) && (tv.Month__c==thisDay.month())) {

      Account acc = new Account (id = tv.Related_Account__c, Monthly_Target__c =
      tv.Current_Month_Target__c);

      accountlist.add(acc);

      } 

      }

    update accountlist;   

}

There is a lot more to triggers, but this, and the link above, hopefully will give you a start to think about how to do this. Another website I recommend, and this guy has done some excellent job on teaching people about triggers, is http://www.sfdc99.com

One other place to start is Salesforce's own tutorial: https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/index_Left.htm#CSHID=apex_qs_trigger.htm|StartTopic=Content%2Fapex_qs_trigger.htm|SkinName=webhelp

I hope these will start you off on the right track. i am a beginner as well, still learning Apex myself

You're trying to define a class and trigger in the same file. It can't be done. Separate them into the proper files.

EchoSignSendAgreement.trigger

trigger EchoSignSendAgreement on Credit_Application__c (after insert) {
    List<Credit_Application__c> creditApplications = Trigger.new;
    echosign_dev1__Agreement_Template__c tem= [Select Id from echosign_dev1__Agreement_Template__c Where Name='Standard Credit Application'];

    for (Credit_Application__c creditApplication : creditApplications) {
        SendAgreement_Methods.sendAgreement(tem.Id , creditApplications.name );
    }   
}

SendAgreement_Methods.class

public class SendAgreement_Methods {

    @future (callout=true)
    public static void sendAgreement(Id temId, Id Name) {
        try {
            System.debug('Calling AgreementTemplateService.load: ' + temid + ' - ' + Name);
          echosign_dev1.AgreementTemplateService.load( temid , Name);

        } catch (Exception E) { System.debug('Exception: ' + e.getStackTraceString());}       
    }

}
