Default employee database

I need to create a database that can keep an ongoing log of employees and
thier work hours. This means that every week the database will roll to the
next week.

Can someone please help me with this.

Do you have any other requirements? "every week the database will roll to
the next week" sounds like a nightmare. Keep in mind that each time entry
should create a single record in a table.

Basically it should total the hours so that I can add this information to
another spreadsheet. I am trying to get a payroll program out Access. I see
time and billing but that is not as elaborate as I need it to be.

I'd really suggest purchasing QuickBooks or one of the other good
payroll accounting programs out there. For under $100 you can get a
program which does ALL of the things you need; doing it in Access
would be reinventing the wheel and would take many, many hours of your
time to come up with a less capable product.
