Having a brain cramp here and don't know where to start. I have 2 tables: vehicles and vehicle_useage. What I would like to do is this:

For each distinct vehicle in the vehicle table, I want to make entries for each day of the month taken from a given date. This routine will be scheduled to fire off once a month and populate the vehicle_useage table with vehicle use_dates for each day of the current month and for each VIN from the vehicle table.

vehicle table:

VIN emp_id
------------ ------
VIN123456789 620123
VIN987654321 620123

vehicle_useage table:

use_date VIN miles
----------- ------------ -----
02/01/2006 VIN123456789 0
02/02/2006 VIN123456789 0
02/03/2006 VIN123456789 0
02/04/2006 VIN123456789 0
etc....
02/01/2006 VIN987654321 0
02/02/2006 VIN987654321 0
02/03/2006 VIN987654321 0
02/04/2006 VIN987654321 0
etc...

Much appreciated for any help you can give...

Don't need a cursor for that:
