SELECT * INTO TABLE is not working for me.

I am testing my SQL commands in pgaccess before I put them into my C++ code.
Trying to copy a table using...
SELECT * INTO TABLE copy_stuff FROM the_stuff

It creates the view but no table called copy_stuff exists after I run it. Why?
I can use...
CREATE TABLE copy_stuff AS SELECT * FROM the_stuff
that works and makes a new table, but it causes other problems with the 
clients that this app is running from. I would like to make the SELECT * INTO 
work. Any idea?
