Default Macro to do numerous tasks

Hi,

I posted a similar post but cannot remember the subject so couldnt re-post
there, please discard other one and see below as this is amended query:

I need a macro to do several tasks for me, i wonder if its possible..

-select columns A-E, G,H from file A, TAB 'YY' in location C:\files for
me\summary 14.2.08 (date changes all the time meaning the file name will not
remain constant)
-paste these into new workbook and call this sheet summary1 and call file
new data.
-select columns F-O, Y, Z from file B, TAB 'ZZ' in location C:\files for
me\new template\summary 14.2.08 (again date changes all the time meaning the
file name will not remain constant)
-paste these into same workbook as above but in a seperate sheet and call it
summary2
-then in sheet summary 1 when first cell in column E = 'info req' insert a
line above this and put a bold heading there called 'info req'
-again in the same sheet when first cell in column E = 'outstanding' then
insert a line above this and put a bold heading there and call it
'outstanding'.
I am doing this because the file is quite big so would like to insert
headers all the way down to divide info out -unelss there is a better way of
doing this.
-finally in summary 2 sheet, i would just like to put a filter on coulumn A
(user can pick criteria manually later) and then just colour column D blue
and all column headings Red.

Is there a way i can write all this in a macro? if steps 1 and 2 arent
possible because the filename will change and it is tab specific can i have
the other steps please?

really appreciate all your help.
