Is it possible (or could it be) to use variables within the DBSource line?
I have several separate clauses that require a DBSource line definition
that are all the same.  But each one references a dbname that is based on
the month and year.  Instead of having to change this each month, I'd like
to have variables in there to pick up the name change automatically.  Even
if it is only read at startup, I can reload the daemon automatically on
the 1st to pick up the change and reconnect to the right database to write
the Stop records.  

Or would it better to create an Identifier that has all the connection
information in it and each clause just references that identifier - then I
would only have to make 1 change and reload? If so, how can that be done?  
Or could I create an external file with the right information in it and
do an 'include filename' in each clause?  I'm not sure if these are valid
options or not.  Thanks.
