Teaching my son to play, need help editing Core Rules

I have started to teach my son to play 40k and started him with a Necron Army.

He is very excited to play. However, he is having to dig through the BRB and Necron Codex so he can reference and confirm the rules of his army and it is becoming very time consuming. I have been able to edit the Necron Dat files to give short descriptions in Special Rules, Wargear, and the Warlord Traits, but have difficulty finding the Core Rules to give short descriptions to Unit Types and Core Special rules such as Swarms, Relentless, and Preferred enemy.

I would appreciate any help in finding these files so we may keep the game flowing and Necron Armies marching to conquest.

The problem with this is while you can use the editor and get into the files and make your own adjustments to it - when it will come time to update the files, all of the customizations that you made to the files will essentially be overwritten (regardless of whether the specific files were updated or not).

I understand and I am fine with that. My son already has a good grasp of the rules I just wanted something that was a quick reference for him on his army list and when he plays with his cousins they can quickly confirm he is using them right.
