Yes just created the user without db_owner under Schemas Owned by User

I am curious. You use 'Dev' as a nickname. Would you describe yourself as a Developer...

Well after looking through ALTER USER, DROP SCHEMA, ALTER DATABASE - I couldn't find any way to do this.

So I've just dropped the database and re-created it, with the user...

No, the user is 'TestUser'

User's Default Schema is 'dbo'

And user has db_owner under Schemas Owned by User

and user is in db_owner under Database Role membership

SMO is not installed on the server, the version on my dev PC is

MS SQL Server 2008 Management Objects

Version 10.0.1600.22

Can I install this to make it work?

Try Control Panel Add/Remove programs (XP) or Programs and Features (Win 7)

You will have an entry

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Management Objects

version 10.0.x.x

~OR

Microsoft SQL Server 2008...

Check if Sql Server Management Objects (SMO) is installed on the server.

If it isn't be very careful to install the same version you developed with.

I've had issues with SMO versions...
