How to insert variable date (monthly) from SQL script

Hi Guys,

Can someone please help me on adding/inserting a variable to an sql scipt? Basically I want to generate data on monthly (i.e. July 01, 2011 to July 31, 2011) basis. As shown below..

Code:
set head off;
set linesize 300;
set pagesize 200;
spool /opt/oracle/temp/output.txt
select value,count(*) as totalcount from pmowner.pinpebasev where availableat between '${date} 12.00.00 AM' and '${date} 11.59.59 PM' group by value;
spool off
quit


I want to insert something like this statement...
Code:
...where availableat between trunc(sysdate);

DESIRED OUTPUT FILE:
Code:
set head off;
set linesize 300;
set pagesize 200;
spool /opt/oracle/temp/output.txt
select value,count(*) as totalcount from pmowner.pinpebasev where availableat between '01-JUL-11 12.00.00 AM' and '31-JUL-11 11.59.59 PM' group by value;
spool off
quit


Thanks in advance.


Br,
Pinpe
