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?

Works here - can you give version info etc?

richardh=> select * into table foo2 from foo;
SELECT
richardh=> select * from foo2;a |                b
---+----------------------------------4 | Jack Smith5 | Andrea Ottwick
(2 rows)

Works only when 'copy_stuff' table is not exists for now.
If you want to populate existing table, just use ' insert into copy_stuff
select * from the_stuff';
