Hi;
I have the following code:

cursor.execute('select MyTable from optionsDetails where Store=%s',
(store,))
options_tables = [item[0] for item in cursor]
for table in options_tables:
cursor.execute('select * from %' % table)

   As has been explained to you repeatedly, you're doing it wrong.

   You don't use a relational database to get a field which leads to
another table.  Put the options in one table keyed by Store.

   Go buy a copy of "Databases for Dummies":
