Help With Structure And Order Of Operation.

Say I have a table full of tasks. Some tasks are performed each day (Mon-Fri, Friday only, Saturday only, etc). Each day someone has to mark which tasks were not completed, and move those to another table (?). Each task may have small changes to it (length of time, who performs the task, etc.).

There is one person tracking these 350 tasks per day, which they run a report generated from another server that tells them what wasn't completed.

I would like form to be able to show what was completed for the day (by basically subtracting what wasn't completed), as well as for a range of days.

Most of this I can do, but the basic problem is how to generate a "daily" schedule, or a list that he can select what wasn't done? I thought about make a table of days from now until about 2010, and make a query with no relationship so that it assigns a date to each entry (which creates several hundred thousand lines), but that wouldn't do because there can be change that occur for that task for one day or several months.

How does one handle reoccurring events like this? I've gotten fairly good with Access over the past several months, and 90% of what I want to do is no problem, but this one problem, with scheduling, is something I've never been able to figure out. I really need this for 3 separate projects!

The closest I've come is using an append query that pulls a date from a control on a form with a button press, and adds to a list of tasks, but I feel there should be a more elegant (and foolproof) option.
