Good Evenin' all,

I desperately need some help.

I have right in the neighborhood of 1,000 pages of text that needs formatting. And it's...so...awful.

There's GOT to be a better way!



Let me try to explain what Im working on.

So, I have to make study guides for a state licensure exam, and those study guides are 100% statute.
The 'source' formatting is ***ked. take a look -->http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.u.../CR.7.htm#7.05 (this is just a random example.)

So, what I have is a curriculum which says something to the effect of the following 36 chapters of the penal code are mandatory, than lists the citations.

I take those citations, find the law, copy and paste it into a word document...and now I need it to be neat and clean and organized.

I have been wrorking on this for days. I know the answer has something to do with styles, but I can't make it happen.

If ANYONE can help, can point me in the right direction...ANYTHING, i will be SO greatful.

If you want to see the documents Im working with, Ill be happy to privately send them.

Stressed, confused, frustrated, and desprate-
Djinn
