Hi,

I would like to have SELECT/UPDATE/DELETE permission for a web developer
UserA on database DBWeb.
For convience's sake, I also want to grant permissions to the UserA so that
UserA can CREATE and DROP Table on DBWeb,
as well as Backup DBWeb.
If I don't want to let the UserA be the Owner for the DBWeb. What kind of
Database Role do I need to grant for UserA?
Thanks for .

Hi Jason

Information about permissions required to under take a command is documented
in Books Online for the topic about the given instructions e.g.

For backup BOL says

"BACKUP DATABASE and BACKUP LOG permissions default to members of the
sysadmin fixed server role and the db_owner and db_backupoperator"

For CREATE TABLE BOL says

"CREATE TABLE permission defaults to the members of the db_owner and
db_ddladmin fixed database roles. Members of the db_owner fixed database role
and members of the sysadmin fixed server role can transfer CREATE TABLE
permission to other users"

Therefore db_backupoperator and db_ddladmin may be the lowest privileges
that you can grant the person, but this may allow them to do too much!
