Hoping someone can advise me.

Firstly for some advice. Can I do this in excel.

Secondly: how do I go about it.

This is for collecting data for a non-profit org.
I have a "Client Analysis" spreadsheet that collects data.
1. I would like the Carers to be able to click on a client name, this
2. opens a separate document to fill in particular data
3. Some of that data is recorded into the "Client Analysis" spreadsheet
4. The document is then saved as a separate document but
5. remains linked to original client analysis document to allow data editing.

Any help would be much appreciated.
I know a little about VBA but can not write it.
