Trying to figure out the best way to compare some dates and copy information associated with them.

sheet1 is a schedule with dates for the entire year in Row 2, and names of employees in column A. Then filled in with various Letters depending on if the employee is scheduled to work, on vacation, normal time off, etc.

Sheet 2, I'm trying to just pull a week of the schedule from sheet1 at a time and only the names scheduled for the day. So in 'A2' I have a date that I enter and then 7 consecutive dates are formulas for the next 7 columns in row 2 for the next 7 days. Below each of these dates I want to know who is scheduled to work.

So I need something that can reference the date in sheet2, find the appropriate date on sheet1, look to see if someone is scheduled to work (the symbol used for work days is an 'x') and then read the name in column A and paste that name in sheet2 below the appropriate date.

Hope this make sense.
Thanks
