Re: assign permissions data_owner to data_select

Hi Tom, thanks for the reply. Im really wondering "how" this is supposed to be handled. Ive looked at the docs, a few books and goggled - the docs and books give no specific examples of assigning privilege from "data_owners" to "data_users" ie -select privs on a schema-.

Google shows a bunch of questions about this but no real way of doing it. Seems like this would be a common, problem

Thats why I asked here, I was hoping there would be a straight forward professional way to handle this. Still looking

Thanks
Bob
