Subject: Create Table Dinamic

Hello All!

Its my first time here in maillist and I started work with postgre on
last moth.

My questions is: Threre is a way to create tables dinamic?

Example:

To create a table we use CREATE TABLE TableName ......

In my db, I have many tables with diferents names but with same colums

Example:

TableOne ( id int, name text );
TableTwo ( id int, name text );
TableThree ( id int, name text );

So, I created a function to create me this tables with diferents names

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION MakeTables ( NameTable text ) RETURNS VOID $$
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE NameTable ( id int, name text ); END; $$ LANGUAGE
'plpgsql';

But, the plpgsql or postgre don't accept this..

So, How can I create a table with my function?

Thanks for any helps!!!

PS : If somebody want knows why I need to create this function, is
because in my db have 1000 tables with the some colums, and each time I
have a new client, I need to create this tables manually.
