incident_date (timestamp)
other fields

My initial reaction is what are you trying to achieve? Surely you
could have one underlying table with dates in it and
SELECT * from mytable WHERE date1>='2007/04/01' AND
date2<='2007/05/01';
but otherwise, like John, I would use an external scripting language to
create the table name.

Learn to use "compose" or "write" and not "reply" when you want to ask a
fresh question. My email rolled this into the "LOCK"
