Need help with codding

Hello to all. I am not a programmer, but i really want to make a shutdown timer for pc. I know there are many of those timers, but neither of them doesn't have a option that i really need, so i decided to try to build one with the help of the forum . I made the window design in Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 express, but i don't know how to make it alive. Here how it looks:

And here is how it's supposed to work: let's say i want every weekday to shutdown at 01:00 AM, but what if i am not sleeping yet? For this purpose there is the "If no user input" option, so i insert the value 30min for ex. Now here is the whole point of this program, if it's 01:00 already, and there wasn't any user imput for more than 30 minutes then it's supposed to shut down. If it's 01:00 already and the user input is less than 30 minutes - it's supposed to wait until this value will be 30min. And vice versa - if the user input is already more than 30min but the time is not yet 01:00 am, it's supposed to wait until 01:00 am. Oh and there is another scenario, if i'm watching a movie, and the time will be 01:00 and the user input will be more than 30min, i don't want it to shut down, that's why there is a need for snooze button.

If someone could help me I will be very thankful, i can't really pay for this, but i'm a designer and i can help you to design something.

Here is the project in visual C++ http://www.4shared.com/zip/ulAqbHOz/zZ_Sleep_Scheduler.html

P.S. Please excuse me if i didn't express myself correct, english is not my native language.

you can do this all with windows native shutdown program. Open console and type shutdown for all options.

For example to open GUI version, type shutdown /i.
