I need a software which can manage and format lines of a huge .txt file. Actually, I am trying to add my reference list to a reference manager, such as EndNote or Reference Manager, which is a much more easier way to manage your references. But, before I decided to use a reference manager software, I used to write down my references to MS Word file, and now I am getting problems while trying to transfer my list to these kinds of programs. These softwares have an import function which can directly import references from a .txt file. Although it is easy to convert a .doc file to .txt, but it is hard to make a .txt file (with more than 700 lines!) which can than be processed by these softwares. Shortly, I need a software which can do this to lines of a simple .txt file;

From this:
Bradford, M.M. (1976). A rapid and sensitive method for the quantitation of microgram quantities of protein utilizing the principle of protein-Dye binding. Anal. Biochem. 72;248-254.

To this:
Author(s): Bradford, M.M.
Publication Date: 1976
Title: A rapid and sensitive method for the quantitation of microgram quantities of protein utilizing the principle of protein-Dye binding.
Journal: Anal. Biochem.
Volume: 72
Pages: 248-254

Please help me, I don’t want to get older while trying to convert more than 700 references! If you are using EndNote or Reference Manager, I also need for editing filters, help supplied with the software really sucks! Any help or suggestion appreciated.
