I just created a new web application that accepts some form based input from the user and inserts it in into the database. To go along with this I created a new user in the database and initially assigned the user to two roles and schemas …

db_datareader
db_datawriter

After thinking things over I realized the user did not need to be part of the db_datareader role because the user only inserted data into the database and never read any. So I went back and removed the role of db_datareader and noticed that the schema options were grayed out. I could not remove the user from schema ownership of db_datareader.

How does one go about removing a user from ownership of a specific schema? Should I have even assigned schema ownership in the first place?

I am logged in as administrator of the SQL Server and of the Windows 7 OS.

    No, you shouldn’t have assigned ownership of the schema to the user. You should have just made the user a member of the schema. Revert ownership to dbo and check that the user account is not still a member of the schema.
