How to change the owner of a SQL Server table from domainusername to dbo?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

When I create a table, the owner is always domainusername instead of dbo. For example, domainusername.tablename I know how how to change it to dbo but what should I change in the configuration level to make sure that when I create a table, the default owner is dbo. like dbo.tablename ?



Thanks

    When you create the table append the dbo in front of it like this: Create Table.. dbo.TableName

    Did you try to set the default schema for that user?

    If you specify the schema (which you really should be when referencing objects) this problem disappears.

This can also be done using the T-SQL statement below:



ALTER USER [DomainUserName] WITH DEFAULT_SCHEMA=[dbo]

    You can change the DEFAULT SCHEMA via the Object Explorer



    Security > Users > {Your User}




    {right-click} > Properties


    Then on the General Tab set Default schema
