Question : are you using one document per week, or is your document recording more than a week's worth of data ?

If you use one document per week, all you need is a hidden view categorizing docs per user and per week, then use that view to lookup if a doc exists for the given week. If it does, block saving until the user inputs a proper week date.

If you hold more than one week of info in the document, then the solution will be more complex, but will most likely involve checking the dates already in the doc and blocking same-date input via Script.

So, how many weeks of data does your report doc hold ?

I've got nothing to hide, and I'd very much like to keep that away from prying eyes.

Yes, it's only one doc per week...on-going.

Easier to check then. Make a hidden view that lists docs with a key - sorted.

The key should be equal to the text of the date (no time info), plus the user name. That should make the key unique.

For every document, create the key above in a hidden field at the bottom of the document. Use that field to display in the hidden view. The advantage of this is that, when saving a new document, you can just do a lookup in the hidden view for the key value. If you find it, then you can block the save because the document already exists.
