Re: help (maybe i'm a little stupid)

i've just tested this and it seems to be the case.

i created a test db, then a test table, then a test user called fred.

then i did a revoke all on fred and then granted select.

then i connected as fred and tried to create a table and the table was
created.

i wouldn't have expected this to be the case ...
