  I have a group of developers that I want to allow permissions to
  create/alter table structures in a particular database. I don't want to give
  them rights to alter the database itself just rights to alter the structures
  inside the database. I run the following command in the query analyzer
  connected to the development database:

  GRANT CREATE TABLE TO DevAdmin

  DevAdmin is a Windows 2K Group containing the developers. We are running SQL
  Server 2000.

  When I have one of the devlopers open Enterprise Manager and check the
  permissions on a table in the development database the design option is
  still grayed out. How can I accomplish allowing the devlopers to change the
  structure of tables, views, etc...without giving them db_owner rights and
  without allowing them to alter the database itself?

  Thanks.

  Nancy
