I am not proficient in web development.  Would like a simple manual for 
updating the interchange program we are using, i.e. adding pictures, 
changing text, putting in options, etc.
I do not want documentation but steps to make these simple changes to our 
current edition (5.6).
Thank you, Jean Tombaugh

Here is a very basic  walk-through on adding simple options to an existing 
item:

You can have multiple simple options on each item.

A simple option for size
another option for color etc...

Try this on the demo website 1st:

http://demo.icdevgroup.org/demo1/

u: demo
p: demo

<assuming you already have a basic item created>

click items
then click on a specific item you want an option
click the options tab
click simple option button
enter a name  (this is internal name, no spaces or -, underscore is ok )
enter a label (displayed to customer, spaces ok)
(past into large text box:)
S1=Size 1*
S2=Size 2
S3=Size 3
click create option
the option is created and shown on the left of the page now.
click edit price differential
(past in text box)
S2=2.00
S3=-1.50
click ok, then test it out in your catalog.

you can create several options for each item, and add price modifiers for
options selected.
Put an * after the option value you want to be the default

Should get you going with simple options, try it on the demo site.
