To hold a fret you press your finger right before the metal bar across the neck of the guitar.
And the strings go in this order: e,a,d,g,b,e. the last "e" is the string closest to you when you’re playing. 🙂

I know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about guitars… when you say a string, b string…etc I still don’t know what your talking about… can you be more specific. And when you hold a "fret" how do you hold it?

Drop D is a very easy tuning to do if you really wanna learn. Standard tuning in EADGBe (from low to high) and Drop D is just DADGBe. To do this, tune your low E sting down a full step (two frets) or just until it sounds exactly like your D string.
