Mend Rover 414si Gearbox Car Gear

How do I fix the gearbox mechanism on a Rover 414si?

I've been told that the gearbox mechanism in my car has broken. The car starts and I can select a gear with the gear stick but it doesn't engage this gear. Is it the gearbox mechanism and if so is it easy to fix or very difficult?

sorry wrote wrong words in earlier answer (kids going at me) mean't to put"synchro mesh" not selector fork, also assumed gearbox is a manual not auto

i'm assuming that it is just one gear that you can not select and that the others are fine, if that is the case it sounds like the "selector fork" for the gear you can not select may be broken. should it be so then the gearbox would have to be removed and dis-assembled, not an easy job to DIY, a replacement gearbox may be a cheaper option as internal gearbox parts can be expensive.
