New zen cart user - dont know how to open includes/languages/english/header.php file

I'm a new user of zen cart and my coding and webdesign knowledge is limited so any help would be greatly appreciated.
:smile:
I've been trying to overcome the FAQ question below but i don't know how to open the mentioned file in a text editor please can anyone help me!

website url:
shop.chemicalresearchers.com/zencart

How do I change the "Sales Message Goes Here" or "Tagline Here" text?

To change the “Sales Message Goes Here” or “Tagline Here” text to say what you want open the includes/languages/english/header.php file in your text editor.

you need to download that file to your hard drive and edit it locally using a text editor.

limelites is right but if you are using the override system having a custom folder as you should the file should go in that folder, so when there is an upgrade it will not affect the original file.

Is your site Upgraded to the current version 1.5.4 Yet?

I'm having a problem closely related to this.

includes/languages/english/header.php does not exist in my directory. It is the same with a handful of other files I am directed to via tutorials. I have 1.3.9h installed. Have the names or locations of these files changed in the new version?

Look again...if your shop opens correctly they have to be there

My fault. I didn't realize my new file manager displays this stuff on multiple pages...

Thanks for making me take a second look.
