Hi vtxyzzy,
Thanks for answering my question, I made the changes to the parent files.
I was not aware that wordpress updates a theme automatically. Is there a way to stop this ? both websites are now finished for my clients and they will not need changing or upgrading.
I tried to create a child directory after reading this
https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes
but I could not access the area ‘wp-content/themes’ in any of my wordpress websites. Should I use a plug-in to create a child directory ?
Also does it make difference if my parent theme is edited the same as my child theme ?
Thanks again,

Will an upgrade to twenty ten theme wipe my graphics and text too ?
