Access Queries for financial calculations

I'm new to Access and I have Access 2003. I'm creating a database to manage projects that our company puts out bids for and I need to find a way to be able to track the status of them weekly. I have dates of when bids are made and when they are signed by the client, but I want to have the database be able to keep track of every week which ones were pending during which week. Basically, I want to try to get the database to recall that yesterday the bid was pending but today it was signed. That way I can run reports for them to say Week 1 $x,000 was pending, Week 2 $x,000 was pending, etc.

Is this possible in Access? If so, how can I accomplish this?

This will require a tblProjectStatus with the projectID and the Status and the StatusDate.
Having this table will allow you to query the MAX() statusdate for a certain week (and then the status), or all statuschanges during a weekly period.

Getting the idea ?
