Intel Quartus Prime(Lite Edition) unable to compile code

Hi, I am trying to compile& simulate VHDL code for a multibit adder along with its testbench. The code is tested in Questasim and it works fine however Questasim is giving errors which I can't quit...

Those aren't errors, only warnings, so they should not prevent compilation in Quartus.

Your design is purely combinatorial, so that's why there's a warning about no clocks.

I don't know how you have your Quartus hierarchy set up, but you do not compile a testbench in Quartus. That's only for simulation, so don't include the tb file in your Quartus project.

    so what about if you wanted to simulate you code first using Questasim? Intel Quartus does the option for running a rtl simulation, correct?

      Quartus can generate script files so you can simulate in Questasim. It doesn't do a simulation compilation.
