Hi... All,
Can I make a select statement which retrieves the data from tables of same structure but different data of varying months?.
For instance, a table with the name Employee_052008 gives the employee information of May month, 2008; Employee_062008 of June 2008, and so on.
The automatic creation of tables of this kind has already been coded. Now I have to generate a report of a month (and year) which is the input from the user. So I need to append this month and year at the last of so called tablename.
I tried in many ways, using PL/SQL as well; but could not find out a solution.
To make it more clear, see the following:
SELECT * FROM Employee_052008;
SELECT * FROM Employee_022007;
SELECT * FROM Employee_012008;
Everything remains the same upto the underscore, then goes dynamically based on the user input.
Solutions are welcomed with thanks in advance.

Solution Found. Using Dynamic SQL along with EXECUTE IMMEDIATE can retrieve data and solve this problem
