Exactly how do you Change File Permissions using Yahoo Web Hosting Control Panel?

With my former host, all you do is click on file name; it immediately gives option list; one is "Change File Permissions." Easy and simple. However, using Yahoo's Web Hosting Control panel, I find absolutely nothing that points me to "Change File Permissions." For example, help instruction mentions this code, "chmod ("/directory/file.php", 0644);" But they fail to say what to do with it, HOW to get it to the proper place, and exactly WHERE that place is. All I need to do is change one "file permission." It's a PHP filed called config.php, which is part of a "Suggest This Site or Tell A Friend" script. I've read Yahoo's instructions over and again, and still find them very vague. They tell you WHAT to do, but not HOW or WHERE to find the items to which they refer. For example, they simply say, "use the php function chmod to change file permissions." Attempting to follow that instruction, nothing on Yahoo web hosting control panel points to "permissions" button or icon. Simplify.
