How to access css files?

I am assisting someone who already has their site set up. I need to update the css files to change the placement of some elements. I'm at the admin home page, and have been looking around forever, but have no idea how to find and modify css files.

I have read all the information on overrides and how to modify elements. I know how to modify the css to do what I need, I just can't find the files. The only info I have been able to update is the html on EZ-Pages.

Any suggestions/answers?

they are located:

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css

Thanks for the quick response.

I found the path info by looking at the source file on the site. What I can't figure out is where to go on the admin page to access these files for editing.

You can't edit them from the admin page.

You'll need to FTP the files from the server to your PC.

Do the edit(s) and then upload/FTP them back to the server.

Thanks again. Now the next question... sorry I'm so new at this.

Once I have updated the file, what is the ftp info so that I can upload the file?

You can scratch that last question. I was not aware that the hosting service is separate. The only info my client gave me was the zencart admin info. Thanks for all your help.

use cuteftp to connect to the host and edit the css file ~~...

There can be transfer errors with CuteFtp - a better option is FileZilla (free)
