Got it- I think.
All of the files in the template_c are currently at 644
if any of these need to be worked on with the internal editor they need to be set to 666 in order to save them.
After making the change return the setting of the file back to 644

- is this the default? I get why this is set to 644 but a bit confused why the internal xcart template editor would not be working out of the box to allow template editing using their editor? Am i missing something.

As mentioned earlier I never really use the internal editor. I am use to editing the .tpl file on my desktop and then loading it to the server via FTP, this was I always have a backup copy on the desktop that I can revert to as I make a copy before I start changing anything in the template file.

Thanks again for the help. Its greatly appreciated.

Best
