table with a variable name???

I would like to create a temporary table with a variable name. For example,
the name of the table might be based on some form of datetime and a constant
text. I have looked through the logs, but have not found any direction on
this. Any ideas?

You will have to compute the table name in your client application or a
server-side procedure, paste it into the command string, and execute
that.
