does anyone know how to open access by todays date using sql

Hi
Can anyone point me in the right direction here, I would like to open
a table in access 2003 by date. I have an asp web page which needs to
read data from a table with each days today's date (which ever day
that is) then a new table is created with today's date.
Example:
I have a table called 17-may-2007 my ASP page reads this table for
24hours then tomorrow (12:00 midnight 18th) I will have a new table
called 18-may-2007 and the old table is left behind (As 17-may-2007)
so I need my sql statement to automatically open table by today's
date.
This is what I have so far but it does not work. Any ideas
'--Start of code--
Call BarGraphSQLData( _
"SELECT id, DataReading FROM DAY(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP) ORDER BY id" ,
_
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" &
Server.MapPath("db/data.mdb") & ";" , _
'--End of code--
Thanks
Trevor
You might get better responses if you posted this in an Access group.
