So the simple solution is to remove the DROP TABLE and CREATE TABLE SQL statements should they exisit.

I'm only speaking on experience here ... I remember inserting a backup over my original table and found that I lost all of my recent posts ... I was using the backup to replace the damage the "attachments as files" hack did to my attachments table.

I took a look inside the sql file and noticed that it drops the tables if they are present and re-creates the table and populates it with the backup data...
