I'm trying to create forms for a schedule with dates leading up to a final date. (6 weeks out, 5 weeks out, 4 weeks out, etc.) Each date must land on a Sunday regardless of the final "launch" date and where it falls during the week. Can anyone help? I'd like each date to read as "Sunday, May 1, 2011" in that format. By the way, I know nothing about Java Script. Surely there's a way to do this. I would appreciate anyone's help.

This is a very doable task, but there is no way to do this without JavaScript. This sort of question has been asked before and you may find old threads that contains a solution for a related problem. Unfortunately this means you'd have to be good a scripting to modify the code.
So you have 3 options.

1. Learn Scripting (not easy)
2. Hire a consultant/developer
3. Get someone to do the work for free. As a matter of fact you can find people on these forums that give out free work if you catch them in a generous mood and you are very nice. This is a fairly interesting problem so you have a chance.
