It looks to me that you would be best off creating
templates for at least some of these, perhaps storing them as Workgroup templates.
Another option would be AutoText or Building Blocks. These are very well suited to table layouts.

That is, unless you have substantial vba and xml experience. That may be daunting, but keep slogging at it and you will get it. As Greg says, it isn't rocket science. It does not require real math, just learning a bunch of arcane rules. One of the real crunchers is that xml, unlike vba, is case sensitive.
Finally, before you spend a lot of time on developing these, be sure you have a good grasp of how Styles work.
