I feel your pain, but don't give up. I have been using Zen Cart for only a couple of months so far, and when I first started I felt exactly as you expressed. As I pushed and prodded at the application however, it turns out that it is complicated but not difficult.

The do-everything page you are looking for is probably the Developer's tool kit. You can search for any string you want to change and it will feed it back to you, path, file and line number. You can't go wrong. Keep going . . . the learning curve is steep but the ability to have such a powerful cart is a great reward.
