Employee Time Sheet

I have a worksheet set up to track employees sign-in and sign-out times from the start of their shifts including the lunch breaks to the end of thier shift.
But my problem is that this sheet is disigned to track 12+ employees, but in order for me to to that I have to create 12+ sheets - which is a no-no given all that scrolling and switching bettween sheets.
I want to be able to create a drop-down list with all the employees there, that when I click on a specific employee the worksheet will change all its values based on this particular employee's work hours.
To be more especific when I enter data on "Mike" it will stay that way only for him even if I click on "John" to check his work hours.
If you need a copy of my worksheet, just tell me how to paste it here, or give me an e-mail to send it to you...
If anybody know of a template or already have this type of sheet, can you please help?

Thanks in advance!

Are you in the right section? Sounds like you need help in Excel. If in Access, how is your table structure?

Yes, I was in EXCEL, but someone suggested me to this forum instead, I think it's kind of dificult to do in Excel. I want to explore all possibilities.
Below there's a link to my sheet.
Thanks

Perennial, How do I create a reltionship between those tables?
That question might sound stupid, but I'm that good on Access, the little knowledge I have is in Excel.
So bear with me, because I'm novice in this Application Development thing.
Your understanding is greatly appreciated.

This is what I have created so far...
But I can't get it to add the times and to roll the days like in Excel.
I get errors everytime I tried to put in a formula.
Below ther's a copy of my sheet, is done but is dead.
Can anyone help!!!!!!!?????????

Hmm, daunting task.
You'll have to drop "thinking in excel sheet format" and start designing tables.
In this case you'll need a tblPersonnell and a table (tblTimes) with the recorded times.
Before doing so you'll need to be sure that there's no recording needed for overwork. The present form doesn't allow that and also working on saturdays and sundays can't be recorded.

I already have two tables done, do I have to delete them and make new ones?
I know I'm kind of thinking in Excel mode, sorry.
But when I was sent to this forum from Excel I actually thought it was gonna be easier.
Did you get the sheet I created?
Do I have to re-create them?
I'll take the overwork out like you suggest.
When you create a table does it have to be with the prefix "tbl"..?

How do I show the day only in in the access date format, I can't figure that out.
Access only aloww me to use short, medium and long date.
Use the format property "input mask" under the Data tab and/or the Format() function.
