      Create a text file with sample json objects.
      Create a collection named 2001_ABC using the import utility:
      mongoimport.exe --host <host:port> -d <databasename> --collection 2001_ABC -file D:\Avi\1.json

      Connect to the instance with mongo.exe
      use <databasename>
      show collections

      You should see 2001_ABC in the list.

      in mongo.exe do:
      db.2001_ABC.drop
      It should be dropped, but instead you get a syntax error.

      I cant access/delete a collection through the client (mongo.exe).
      The collection was created using the import utility.
      (Probably the reason is the collection name starts with a number)

      I can see the collection when doing 'show collections'.
      When I try to drop it i get an error:
      > show collections
      2000_ABC
      2000_Capped1G
      2001_ABC
      Col_2000_1G
      system.indexes
      system.profile
      > db.2001_ABC.drop
