Default How capture a date variable within a text cell?

I am creating a work schedule and need to be able to pick up a date and place
it within a report header "Week Ending May 15, 2008". The date is always
Thursday of next week but I don't always run the report on the same day so I
need to prompt for the date when I actually run it. I also need to use that
date for column headers for each day of the week. I would put the date into
the right most column to start with, then subtract one to get the date for
Wednesday which would be the next column to the left, then subtract one to
get the date for Tuesday which would be the next column to the left, and so
on.

Here is a very crude of example of what I need ...

Week Ending May 15, 2008

Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday
Thursday
05/09/2008 05/10/2008 05/11/2008 05/12/2008 05/13/2008 05/14/2008

05/15/2008

Thanks for any help and suggestions
