301 Redirect http to https .htaccess code needed urgently

Hi all,

Ive had a very basic website for a friend on aso for years.

Now I wish to move my own website to a startup business package.

However, this package applies https to every page and all my google links are http, ive been searching for hours to find a pre written code for how to perform a google friendly 301 redirect for the entire http site to https

Can anyone help, ive been to the relevant google websmaster page and apache pages but I just don't understand it all enough.

All I know is that I have to open wordpad, paste the code, save as .htaccess and ftp to server root.

Thanks in advance,

Michael
