I need to create a basic drop-down menu with employee names and work
they are assigned to each day. Since the job description is
repetitious, I can include their work for the day in the drop down
menu and assign it to different employees on a day to day basis using
the same information over and over.

I'm not sure if I understand your question either! Also not clear if
your dealing with an intranet site as opposed to a public one. (Boy, I
hope this isn't something you'd put on an Intranet site... Think about
the privacy issues!)

In any case, sounds like you are looking for some kind of web to
database link to me too. So, you've got your employee names in one
table, names of jobs in another, and a third one that has days of the
week. That third database will actually be a cross link between the
other 2 tables where your matching employee # 43 to job # 28 for
example. Then, you need some kind of script to run in your web page so
that when they select their name from the drop down list, it checks
their daily assignment in table 3, and shows the job they've been
assigned too.

Pardon me for saying this, as I'm still assuming this intended for
private viewing on a company/corporate machine. Whomever does this is
going to need some experience in doing web programming. Depending on
what support you have on the server, you can do it in PHP, ASP, etc.
Not a hard task, if you have that background, but not a beginner topic
either! Consult with your own IT staff, or considering hiring someone
from outside of your company...
