I had a issue where I needed to rebuild a domain from scratch.

I re-joined my sql 2005 machine to the domain, but all the logins now needed to be reset.

I'm logged on as a domain admin, and I have the SA user accoutn and pw, but I cannot get into the properties of my database I get the following error.

Property Owner is not available for Database '[mydbname]'. This property may not exist for this object.

Please help on how I can get back in to change.

It happened to me once. Change the owner of Database to SA.

That did the trick, now what would I have done if I wasn't in mixed mode?

I tried that first to no luck. It's possible it was due to the account already existing for that db though.

Thanks for your help.

Due to the fact that you are using Group account as owner.
