How to question

I have been surfing for 2hrs and still cant come up with a good answer as to what program I need to edit a .dll or a .exe. I came across C++ but that did not look to promising. Any thoughts?

You wanting a "hex editor" ?

Got two of those just need to know more about the program I wish to edit. Both my editors dont explain the lines and I dont have enough education in programs to edit.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong:

AFAIK DLL and EXE are compiled from C or C++. Its down from programlines to binairy which instructs the CPU and registers and all what to do. You need some kind of decompiler to get the C(++) code back. Than its possible to edit things and recompile it.
A hexeditor lets you change things on a low level as far as changing displayed text (as long as the filesize is not changed).

Look for a C/C++ decompiler. Also known as "reverse enginering"

Ehmm this is getting into the hack section BTW, but I know the purpose

I think the program you want is called PE Explorer at:

Or the files themselves are at http://www.easy-files.com
Or you can alway hunt around at http://code.box.sk
