You can remove a users select access to sysobjects, which will stop them from being able to use EM to view the database, but will allow them to do a select from the view. The CRM group at my last company did this to me. Still not sure why, but it did work, and was very annoying.

By default, you can examine the system objects. I imagine you could revoke SELECT permission on the various tables, procs, etc. Metadata is generally not considered sensitive. -- Tom --------------------------------------------------------------- Thomas A.

So you mean if we give small access to a user then the user will be able to see all database structure ? That is terrible vulnerability. We have SCHEMA in Oracle so i can efficiently hide any part of database from user. Do we have similar thing in SQL server? I know SqlServer 2000 has scema capability. Can it solve my problem ? Thanks, Ali "Tom Moreau" <tom@dont.spam.me.cips.ca> wrote in message news:#xtfKY04CHA.2408@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... Well, yes and no. You can create a view, proc or function and specify the WITH ENCRYPTION option. However, it is quite difficult to prevent users from seeing a list of objects. -- Tom --------------------------------------------------------------- Thomas A.

Hi, Can i limit a user to just run a select statemet on a view, but do not allow him see the view definition or list of other database objects? If i make a login member of database public role, then that user will be able to see all database structue such as view/table/sp definitions. We need to restrict a user and hide database structure from him. All we want him to do is run a select statement on a view, but we don't want him to see view structure. Any help would be appreciated, Ali
