The privilege on the public schema was granted to "public" and therefore must be revoked from "public" to remove that privilege. Revoking from "guy" doesn't have any effect. Note that if you revoke all privielges from 'public' then only users who have been explicitly granted access will be able to create or *use* any objects in the public schema. Generally, I revoke CREATE rights from the public schema, but leave USAGE rights, as I then put trusted extensions and other tools into the public schema. Thanks! Stephen
