Default Problem with Search -- Stucco repair?

I'm having a bit of a problem using the 'search' feature. I know I read about repairing stucco somewhere, but I can't find the information using the search feature.

If anybody knows how to fix it a little hole in the stucco, could you please tell me how to do it and what product to use? I have a little hole underneath the doorway. It looks like the previous owners kicked it or banged it with furniture. It's not a large hole, so I think I can do the job myself, but I don't know what to use to fill in the hole. Any advice? Thanks!

Try this site Judy. I repaired a small creak in mine and you cannot see it now. But I followed these steps.

Not really all that hard. Go to Home Depot or lowes . Tell a knowledgeable worker your situation and ask for a recommendation as to what material to use. I also had some chips and cracks around my door area and repaired and painted it so no one could tell (with the paint that the builder left for me). Forget what product I used but it was what was recommended at the store.

Thanks to both of you!
I went to Lowe's and Home Depot, but I got distracted by the laundry room cabinets and the paint samples. I did look for a can that said "stucco" on it, but I guess the product is called something else. Next time I'll ask somebody.
Thanks again for your help.
