  Hi,

  In a SQL Server 2008 instance:

  1. Created a login called Scott.

  2. Created a user called Scott and given the read access to the database Mydb

  3. Created a schema name called Scott and the made the user Scott as schema owner.

  4. Granted the permission to Scott to create tables,procedures and views

  Then, I logged in to the instance using the login Scott and tried to create the table as below:

  use Mydb

  go

  create table table1(

  Id int,

  Name varchar(100))

  But, I'm getting the below error:

  Msg 2760, Level 16, State 1, Line 2

  The specified schema name "dbo" either does not exist or you do not have permission to use it.

  Question:

  What has to be done to make the default schema as Scott, for the user Scott?

  Instead of mentioning schema name.object (Scott.table1) every time when creating objects

  Thanks
