Q: 

Sql server management studio 2008: what permissions are necessary to display table list?

In SSMS 2008, when I expand the tables folder, all i see is the "System Tables" folder.

In SSMS 2005, when I connect to the exact same database with same account, I expand the tables folder and see all my tables. Has something changed with which tables are displayed by default? Does it only show tables in the default schema by default?

A: 

found that it was related to my user account not having select permssions on some SYS objects as well as select access to the owner of the tables
