There would be 2 seperate steps. The header is located in catalog/includes/header.php.

The main text page is located in catalog/includes/laugauges/english/index.php. B)

actually, depending on what you mean, HEADER_TITLE will also be in your language files. There's a HEADING_TITLE in the various files in includes/languages/english/ , like for index.php the default is:

define('HEADING_TITLE','Choose an action...');

but different pages have their own language file with their own specific HEADING_TITLE liek categories.php has: define('HEADING_TITLE','Categories / Products');

There are also some in includes/languages/english.php lie HEADER_TITLE_TOP -> 'Administration', HEADER_TITLE_ONLINE_CATALOG -> 'Online Catalog'

Here is my current page which is the default when I first started using osC:

I am trying to get rid of the text and leave the login and change the "About Us" to Welcome to NexGen Technology". Can you change this code or help me with this? Thanks

The main text page is not called the header. It is index.php found in catalog/includes/languages/english/index.php. How are you editing these? are you downloading the files using an FTP program and then editing them in Notepad or an HTML writer? or are you editing in Admin. Do not edit files in File Manager but you can edit files in Tools under languages fine index.php and click on it.

You can remove the text on the main page by deleting everything between the 2 apostrophys"

define('TEXT_MAIN', 'DELETE EVERYTHING HERE AND ADD YOU OWN TEXT');

At the bottom of the same index.php where you see all the define lines, you can change the Let's see what WE have here to: Welcome to NexGen Technology. B)

I am using the HTML editor within my vDeck control panel. It looks like <> on the file editor window. Its there an PHP editor I can use to accomplish this and make this process easier? The only way I can edit files is in my file manager under my web host vDeck. I cant go into myosCommerce Administration Tools and change anything. Its says that I dont have the right permission to change the files.I am really new to this so bare with me. Thanks much

I suppose you should contact your Web Hoster to find out how to change permission to go into Administration or search the OSC forum for an answer. I think I've seen many questions on setting permission in OSC. Are you able to enter OSC Administration at all, you will have to to use OSC? Are you presently up loading to your web site. You may want to get a seperate HTML writer, try Google search , Arachnophilia. Then you can download files, change them and up load to your site. B)

To add to the post above here is line 15. I looks right but how would I know? I bet its something simple.

define('TABLE_HEADING_NEW_PRODUCTS', 'New Products For %s');

I was wondering if anyone had an answer for my problem that I am having with the line in the post above this one. Please help.

Did you use an apostrophy in your text eg: What's - should be - What\'s

You'll need to add the back slash. B)
