Have you unzipped SMW or is it still in the .zip format it was in when you got it?

Or are you trying to edit an IPS patch?

Does the rom file end in .smc?

Is it version 1.0 or version 1.1? LM only opens the US 1.0 and the Japanese ROMs, US 1.1 and UK ROMs won't work because they have things in different places.

I used Lunar IPS and got a result but I'm still getting an error.

It says
"The ROM does not have a 0x200 byte header!"

reply if you can offer assistance please

It says the ROM doesn't have an 0x200 byte header. What should you do? Add one. Open it in a hex editor and insert (NOT overwrite) 512 bytes at the start. I don't think it matters what they are.
