Hi,

    I'm an electronics newbie and for my application it would be very
helpful if I could design a circuit just from DC batteries and
resistors that would output a sin wave (AC).  I don't know if this is
possible.  Is there any circuit design software where I could specify
that this is what I want and have it try and create it?

No, not from DC batteries and resistors.... first you have to
understand what a DC battery is and what a resistor is... A DC battery
outputs a steady current (Direct Current) when you connect it to a
resistor, and it also produces a Voltage across the resistor you
connect it to, a typical AA battery will cause 1.5 Volts across your
resistor... A resistor resists current flow and causes a voltage drop,
(a current to voltage converter?) and the linear equation V = I*R
describes the relationship between voltage and resistance... if you
understand this then you will see why you can not create an
alternating current source from only resistors and a battery.
