Actually, pretty much everything is a fruit. We just use the term vegetable to distinguish savory from sweet. I found this simple definition that will hopefully clear things up.
A fruit is the matured ovary of a flower, containing the seed. After fertilization takes place and the embryo (plantlet) has begun to develop, the surrounding ovule becomes the fruit. Yum. I won't go on about the four types of fruit--simple, aggregate, multiple and accessory--which explain things like berries and pineapples.
A vegetable is considered to be edible roots, tubers, stems, leaves, fruits, seeds, flower clusters, and other softer plant parts. In common usage, however, there is no exact distinction between a vegetable and a fruit. The usual example is the tomato, which is a fruit, but is eaten as a vegetable, as are cucumbers, peppers, melons, and squashes. The classification of plants as vegetables is largely determined by custom, culture, and usage.
If it's a list you're looking for:
apples
bananas
cherries
peppers
zuchini
oranges
grapefruit
lemons
limes
mangos
coconuts
grapes
strawberries
raspberries
watermelon
cantaloupe
honeydew
blueberries
kiwi
squash
carambola
avocado
peaches
necterines
cucumbers
pickles
eggplant
okra
the list goes on...

Fruits have seeds; "vegetable" is a non-scientific word for expanded edibles

They can't be both. See below link.
EDIT: I stand corrected. You have to have a correct frame of reference. (Botanical or culinary.) See second link below.
