<pre>mysql> SELECT * FROM tipBackup;
+----+-------------+-------------------------+-------------+
| id | subject | description | create_date |
+----+-------------+-------------------------+-------------+

1 row in set (0.40 sec)
mysql> DROP TABLE tipBackup;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> SELECT * FROM tipBackup;
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'ggl.tipbackup' doesn't exist
Be careful, when you use the "DROP TABLE" statement. All data rows are gone too.
