RE: How do I set the login name for a user?



Hello Dave,

There are basically two possible reasons for the symptom that the dbo user
does not have a matching login:

1, If a database is created by a Microsoft Windows NT authenticated login
that is granted access to the computer that is running SQL Server through
group membership (such as BUILTIN\Administrators), the security
identification number (SID) stored in the sysusers system table in that
database does not have a matching SID in the syslogins system table.

2, If a database is restored where the dbo user's SID in the sysusers
system table is not matched with the SID in the syslogins system table.

If the dbo user does not have an explicit login, the solution is to change
the owner of the database to a user that has an explicit login. For
example, change the owner of the database to the system administrator (sa),
and then execute the following code:

exec sp_changedbowner 'sa'

Is this solution helpful to you? Please let me know if you still have the
problem after trying it.
