The useTable property specifies the database table name. By default, the model uses the lowercase, plural form of the model's class name. Set this attribute to the name of an alternate table, or set it to false if you wish the model to use no database table.

Example usage:

class Example extends AppModel {
   var $useTable = false; // This model does not use a database table
}

1. class Example extends AppModel {
2. var $useTable = false; // This model does not use a database table
3. }

Alternatively:

class Example extends AppModel {
   var $useTable = 'exmp'; // This model uses a database table 'exmp'
}

1. class Example extends AppModel {
2. var $useTable = 'exmp'; // This model uses a database table 'exmp'
3. }
