Hi

I am a complete newbie here. I have spent hours trying to create a database - (even installed on XP and Vista) and I seem to not be able to create a database - it tells me that:

Create Database permission denied in database master - Microsoft SQL Server Error 262.

How to I enable these priviledges?

Do i need to regsiter the Server with the Enterprise Manager and how do I do that?

All help VERY gratefully received thanks Lister

Does your login have enough permissions for creating databases?What is the server role that you're having?

How do I check and make a login username have enough permission to create a database?

(Find this odd b/c the login details came from my hosting company - surely this login ought to give me enough permissions to set up a database - i paid for it!!)

THANKS!
