I need scripting help, I'm also a total noob

First of all, when I say noob, I mean to scripting, not modding.

 

Secondly, here's what I actually need help on, and it's 2 issues.

 

1st Issue - I basically am trying to make a mod that upgrades spells. I have all my spells and custom red lightning done I just need someone to write a script for me. I have learned a lot through TES4Edit and Creationkit through my years of personal modding and making armor and dungeons and etc. In addition, I learned that I learn by example quite well, so this will help a lot. My script needs to do only 1 thing. I want it to, upon the reading of a Spell Tome, remove a spell. For instance, when I learn "Enhanced Sparks" I want it to remove "Sparks" from my spell list. That's all. If someone could give me a template for that kind of script that would be fantastic. It doesn't need to prevent me from learning Sparks again. I just want it to remove Sparks once.

 

I tried to download Spell Eraser and open its script up to use as reference, but that leads me to my 2nd issue.

 

2nd Issue - Anytime I try to open up a script it says "Unable to read in script source code." And then goes back to the previous window. I have notepad++ installed, and it is my default .psc file reader, but even when I try to open any script in my creation kit in a third party editor the option is grayed out. In addition, a lot of scripts like the Oghma Infinium scripts and such are missing from my install folder, yet work just fine in-game. I don't see a Skyrim - Scripts.bsa file for me to unpack so I don't know where to get my scripts.

 

If someone can help me solve these problems that would be awesome and I'd appreciate it more than you know. Thank you to anyone who's made it this far and not fallen asleep. You're awesome.
