    In Settings>>>> General change the urls and if you can not log in admin then you will have to reset urls and I have videos on my website on how to reset urls

    govpatel,

    Thank you for your response. I cannot login to either the admin nor do I have access to the database while it is on the server. I have the original .sql file which I can open in a text editor but cannot see or recognize the old domain name.

    Is this something that the hosting company can change? Can I not just hand code these files–it is very small site? Unfortunately I cannot find the appropriate files to edit.

    I am a designer with limited knowledge of WP but can code xHTML/CSS. I would think that this would have been a troubleshooting topic at WordPress but cannot seem to find anything about this problem.

    Any additional help would be most appreciated. Thanks again.

    You can use functions.php method as result is same table in database will be changed.
    You can use ftp and download functions.php open in editor add those two lines as per video and upload it back and when you try log in twice those urls will be changed and you need to delete them lines once you can log in.

    Thanks for your help. Fixed by having the hosting company reset it for me.
