Need help in selecting an airfoil


Hi!

I need to select an airfoil that can generate a certain amount of lift. I've been told to look at NACA airfoils, but am at a loss as how to go about this task. With the information that I have: required lift, maximum size and weight, how do I go about selecting an airfoil?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
