Hi Morey,
If this is addressed to me, or mostly to me, all I can say is yes, I assure 
you that Word can provide all the functionality you're looking for, and 
more, but it never occurred to me that you might not already be familiar 
with Word, or in fact have it and use it.  Rather, I thought that you had 
some special reasons for wanting to see if you could achieve some of the 
same things with the built-in Windows text processors, or HJ Pad, instead. 
What I'm saying is very conventional.  Word is the main serious word 
processor in use today, and has a multitude of capabilities that makes it 
enormously different from these others.  So, I hope you do take a look at 
Word, and if you have to make an effort and take some time to learn to use 
it, be aware that it's no waste of time.  Word's the real thing for serious 
word processing.  Notepad is sort of a jazzed-up version of a plain text 
editor, and WordPad attempts to go a step farther and offer a few features 
that make it resemble Word.  But Word is where all the power and flexibility 
and capability are.
Good luck.
