SQL is
radically different from the dBase family of databases, which are non-relational. You need to get up to speed on relational DBs, eg with ...

Re your error, creating stored routines consisting of multiple logical lines requires DELIMITER directives to tell MySQL when to turn stored routine analysis on and off, eg ...
delimiter //
create trigger ...;
//
delimiter ;
You could get round that difficulty with this Trigger by rewriting it as one logical line ...
create trigger `fc1_before_update` before update on `fc1` for each row
set new.total = ifnull(new.h1_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h2_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h3_qty,0) +
ifnull(new.h4_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h5_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h6_qty,0) +
ifnull(new.h7_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h8_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h9_qty,0) +
ifnull(new.h10_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h11_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h12_qty,0) +
ifnull(new.h13_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h14_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h15_qty,0) +
ifnull(new.h16_qty,0) + ifnull(new.h17_qty,0),
new.total_lbs = new.total/453.592;
But there are other problems:
1. Your total and total_lbs values are logically redundant, ie they're just sums of other values in the row. It is probably more efficient to sum them in a View, or if you are using MySQL 5.7, in derived columns (read about those in the 5.7 manual).
2. Table columns named xxx1, xxx2, ... usually indicate normalisation failure. (Read about normalisation.) Your need to sum them confirms that. To address that problem, let's see the present table structure as described by ...
