I'm hoping for a kick in the right direction.  I have installed a module.  The module repeatedly uses the word "alpha" in the body of the module forms, templates, etc.  I would like to change that word to "beta".  I believe I can do this in the Language Editor, through the App_LocalResources for that particular module.  Then I get stuck.  Is there a specific command I should use to accomplish this change?

Thanks for any help!!

does the module use the resources to retrieve the displayed text?

The module developer tells me this is the place to go to change wording.  However, when in the Language Editor, none of the Resource Name/Localized Value boxes actually seem to have any code or commands in place.  All I see is basic text like "Dashboard Settings", "Latest Uploads".  Nothing that indicates any commands already there and ready to be modified.  I've tried to modify the wording through the .ascx files and templates but that did not go well (probably because I don't know exactly what I'm doing!).

if the developers properly use the resource files for localizablilty of their modules, the language editor is the place, where you may change it. You can change text only - what else are you looking for?

The text displayed in the various boxes of the language editor does not correlate to what is displayed in the module.  That's why I don't understand how to edit it.
