    I apologize. As it turns out, that is precisely what I wanted to do.
For some reason it didn't seem to be working; when I assigned the user to
db_owner group, the objects they created were owned by the user -- not dbo.
I must have had a conflicting setting somewhere in the process.
    Thanks for your help.
