Default Requesting Help Please on Auto Worksheet Setup

Hello, this is my first day in this forum... Lots of sharp minds in here, and
I'm hoping there are a few who could help me resolve an issue...

The scenario:
A worksheet used to track the number of papers issued to 50 news carriers
each day. Carriers are paid every 15 days based on the total amount. The
person assigned to maintain this does not have the skills to properly setup
and format a new worksheet to include a column for the route number, the
carrier and columns for the next 15 days, and columns for totals, etc.

The task:
1. The user needs to begin a new pay period which really could be 15 or 16
days depending on how many days in the month.

2. The user clicks icon on the desktop, excel opens with a dialog with 2
choices: Edit Worksheet or Start New Worksheet.

3. If user choice is = to 1, then open worksheet in edit mode (which brings
up another issue which is how to you manage each workbook that already
exists?)

4. If user choice is = 2, then show dialog with a calendar dropdown or
static calendar. User chooses a date to start the pay period (or draw
period), and user choosed an end date.

5. Display dialog to show " confirm dates ", user chooses a create button
and excel opens a new workbook, with the name of the dates (ex:
080108-081508.xls)

6. Worksheet displays the following columns: RouteNum, Carrier, Fri Aug-01,
Sat Aug-02, Sun Aug-03 and so forth, Daily Totals, Weekend Totals, Sunday
Totals, Grand Totals.

Would appreciate any feedback on how this could be accomplished or where I
could go to get the info.

Thanks in advance.
