Thanks for all the great input. Just to have a working version in the archive, I used the following script to create my table. I put all but the partition line in the margin_detail.ddl file and then ran this script. Works like a charm.

     .os rm /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/margin_detail_x.ddl
     .os rm /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/x_append.ddl
     .os rm /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/x_temp.ddl

     .os cp /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/margin_detail.ddl
     /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/margin_detail_x.ddl

     .export indicdata file=/dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/x_temp.ddl
     .set INDICDATA OFF
     .SET FORMAT OFF
     .SET WIDTH 254

     Select 'PARTITION BY RANGE_N(date_invoice  BETWEEN DATE  ''' ||
     add_months((date - extract(day from date) + 1),-12)
     || ''' AND DATE ''' || CAST(MAX(date_invoice) AS DATE FORMAT
     '''YYYY-MM-DD''') || ''' EACH INTERVAL ''7'' DAY);'
     FROM dss_tables.dly_sales;

     .export reset

     .os sed "s/''/'/g" /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/x_temp.ddl >
     /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/x_append.ddl

     .os cat /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/x_append.ddl >>
     /dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/margin_detail_x.ddl

     .run file=/dba/dss/dbtest/craig_test/excep_rpt/margin_detail_x.ddl
