Oh, hey now, if you include body parts, I use equipment even older than that every day.

Ok,
So this posting has settled an issue for me.
I'm not going to shell out umpteen hundred bucks for an eReader as long as I've got my laptop circa 1998. Though sufficiently heavy enough to hinder diaphragm movement while perched upon the solarplexus it is bad in this one respect. Perhaps I will sit up some and cause the works to reside more in a lap.
The biggest upside to spending zero money on new smells? I don't have to wade through the cornucopia of internet tested user synopsis(s) about eReaders.
Onward Jeeves!

I must confess, I'm very happy with my Nexus & tablet. I use it primarily as an eReader and to browse the web in bed. My dad (who's 95+ and not very tech savvy) loves reading newspapers from all over the world on the tablet.

I tried to modify a table in the database, and when I clicked "Design" in the context menu, I got this:
"You're not currently logged in as owner or administrator."
and this:
"You can change the table but the changes won't be saved."
The really intersting part of this is that I'm the user that created the database in question, as well as every component (table, stored proc, function and view) in said database, which, last I checked, makes me the "owner".
I can't do anything but laugh...
EDIT ===========================================
The change I'm trying to make in the database supports code I've already put into the application. I'm waiting for someone to suggest I remove the new code so I can continue working, just so that I can tell them that's not even in the realm of possibility. If they want to stop me from working, I'll happily oblige them.

Wasn't this covered by those oh-so-valuable qualifications you just got?

I mentioned that to the HMFIC down in the DBA office... If I have the required sysadmin certification, why am I not a sysadmin?

Something similar happened to me once. I tried to change my default schema. Couldn't because I was part of the sysadmin group. So I removed myself from that group. I didn't think however, that now I can't get those rights back.

You can if you're a local administrator on the server. 
Starting SQL Server in single-user mode enables any member of the computer's local Administrators group to connect to the instance of SQL Server as a member of the sysadmin fixed server role. For more information, see Connect to SQL Server When System Administrators Are Locked Out[^].

That was exactly how I reinstated my rights and then created a new user so I have admin and user with different schema
Thanks for the link

There is a setting that needs modified. I cannot remember at this time but I will look for it.
Look under tools\options\designers\Prevent saving changes that require table re-creation.

I'm not an admin - I can't change sh*t...

I believe the prevent change flag needs modified by a sysadmin

I am not going to tell the sysadmin how to do his job. I'm assuming he is at least equally as certified as I am.
Meanwhile, I'm sitting here slappin around ol' Mr OneEye...

Well, you could, but it would probably mean you lose your gun license.

No - I'm on a DoD network running as a normal user. My credentials/access has not changed at all since the time I created the database.

Don't you have to collect 50 rings to do that?

What did you do, switch from Windows 7 to Windows 8 in between then and now?

I think if I had done that, I'd be shooting the place up by now.

A few years ago, I actually came up with a concept for a programmer cartoon strip.

I just ran into it for the first time a few minutes ago (for something that I'm 99.9% was my fault).

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
