I have 8 tables and i open them with same syntax
all tables have same date field ( ODATE )
i dont want to create 8 different s.proc.
is it possible to make table name a variable in a s.proc like below ?

SELECT * FROM : MYTABLE
WHERE ODATE>=(SELECT MAX(ODATE) FROM : MYTABLE) -15

if it is not possible how can i select just last 25 records in a table ?

Thank you.
