Hi

I've got a chart in made in a word processor 8 columns wide, 1200 rows long.

The chart is an info-outline form of a book I'm adapting for a documentary project.

Each column corresponds to:
{PAGE #} { PERSONS } { SUBJECT KEYWORDS } {SHORT SUMMARY} {LONG SUMMARY} {ROW NUMBER}

I'd like to be able to convert each row into an index card, with search able and easily organizable meta data (specifically, date, page #, persons, keywords, and row number.) I'd also like to be able to print out the card to stick to my giant bulletin board.

I've been searching (it seems) for my whole life, and can't find a decent piece of software. I've looked at Scrivener, a bunch of notebook apps, and other stuff, but can't find this magic piece of software. And I don't have time to build it myself!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
