Hey everybody,I'm not a SQL guru or anything so I thought I'd give this forum a shot. We need to perform some updates on our production database during business hours and we need to restrict access to everyone in the organization except for myself and a couple of other people. What is the best way to do this? How? We are running SQL 2000. Thanksrottsko |

What access is used by the users? Do they have db_owner or sysadmin? If they don't, then you can simply put the database into RESTRICTED_USER mode.Tara KizerMicrosoft MVP for Windows Server System - SQL Serverhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |

Unfortunately, the users have dbowner access. What are my options now? |

Remove their access, change to restricted_user, do the work, change to multi_user, add their access.Tara KizerMicrosoft MVP for Windows Server System - SQL Serverhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |
