2005 Fully qualified names.

In SQL 2005 I have a server with a username of JM. This username created and
maintains a database. When I login via query analyser I can`t run queries on
a table unless I qualify it JM.tablename. How do I alter the login to ensure
i can query just on tablename ?
SimonHi
This is because JM is the owner of the object ,
use sp_changeobjectowner to change the owner form jm to dbo
e.g
sp_changeobjectowner 'Table' , 'dbo'

qualify the name. If I changed the database ownership to dbo then wouldn`t
that ensure that I`d have to use dbo.tablename ?

In SQL Server 2005 MS has introduced SCHEMA that all database objects belong
to. Think about a container that holds objects.
You will have to be a memeber of sysadmin server role as well as db_owner
database role.

Is there an easy way to alter the qualified names in strored procs and views ?

:-) There is just no valid reason not to IMHO, and it does save the engine
some effort.

no matter what as well.
