Removing Administrative Rights Only on a Table or Column Permission from a User or Group

Prerequisites
Database Version Authority-Based Database Object Permissions

SAP Sybase IQ 16.0 Not supported.
Task

The REVOKE command applies to the database object permission itself, not to any administrative right granted on the permission. Therefore, to remove the administrative right only and leave the database object permission intact, do not use the Revoke button. Rather, regrant the specific permission without administrative rights. Only the original grantor can remove the administrative rights only from a granted permission. If another grantor regrants the same permission without administrative rights, a new permission without administrative rights is granted, but the original permission with administrative rights remains and takes precedence over any other non-administrative grants of the same permission to the same user or group.
