Hello Experts, Please advise on this one, thank you.
We try to prevent giving users/developers dbo in their QA databases as much as we can. One of the problems with this is that they still need to be able to create and modify database objects such as user tables.
Many Devs thus tend to stick with the GUI (SSMS) for this sort of work. The problem arises when we grant them db_ddladmin (not dbo) and they are no longer able to modify tables or columns via the table designer GUI.
I don't know if this is a bug or a feature request but I consider it a bug since the user has sufficient permissions to alter the table via TSQL but the GUI gives them messages stating:
"You are not logged on as the database owner or system administrator. You might not be able to save changes to tables that you do not own."
Thank you
