Schema will not change

  • I have a table called consultant.DimConsultantStatus. I want to change the schema to dbo but when I run the following command:

    ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON consultant.DimConsultantStatus TO dbo;

    It reports that is it completed sucessfully but when I refresh EMS it still reports it's owned by consultant.

    Any ideas?

  • your statement

    ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON consultant.DimConsultantStatus TO dbo;

    just tells the system the object consultant.dimconsultantstatus is owned by dbo.

    you should use

    ALTER SCHEMA dbo TRANSFER consultant.DimConsultantStatus;

    GO

    Check bol.

  • That was the ticket. Thanks. I did not get past the ALTER AUTHORIZATION in BOL so I probably should have dug deeper. Thanks again.
