Welcome to sc2mapster!
As a welcome gift, I hereby present you with the permission to buy us all a round of drinks!
Once you get sc2 and the editor, I recommend you check these stickies:
Map Night: EU, NA (Dunno where you live)
That's a weekly "event" happening every friday where people from mapster get together and play good custom maps that arent high in popularity
SC2Streamster
This is a livestream that's held multiple times a day. Its made up out of Newbie Wednesday, Terraining Thursday and Mapcraft (A podcast hosted by Mozared, Eiviyn and me). You'll also find recordings of Data Mondays (Discontinued until we have a new host for it), and Triggering Tuesdays should be running sometime soon as well
Mapster Mentoring
A long list of people willing to help anyone, and preffered ways of contacting them.
And you might find the Tutorial List on the wiki useful. At the top of the page you also have a button that brings you to the wiki itself.
Now that you're done reading this wall of text I copy pasted from the other new guys thread, to your problem: You're not saying what isn't working. If you give us more details, we can start working on your problem, but just saying "the unit doesnt work" doesnt help, as a unit is composed of a large amount of different fields and even other areas of the data editor, and you're not pinpointing the problem. If it's got no model, create an actor for it. If it doesn't move, go through all the movement fields. maybe your acceleration is set to 0. If it isnt attacked by others, check its flags and/or movement plane array fields. I and many others would be happy to help you, and we will :)
I hope you don't get too frustrated with the data editor. It's a hard thing to get into, but once you figure it out, it's easy. I recommend you check the mapster mentoring thread I linked above and talk to some of the data experts listed there.
And as Houndofbaskerville said (I'm actually rather surprised that I'm beginning to understand him, lol.) try searching for keywords of your problems, theres a good chance it has been solved already (Check even threads that arent about your problem - Theres a good chance someone will give a step by step guide on how to do something which could help you)
