restrict enterprise manager to see all the databases

Hi,
my question is about security, but I am sure it has something to do
with the server configuration. It is about normal users other than SA.
In the server, multiple users, and each user has ownership of a
seperate database. When any of these users connect to the sql server
via Enterprise Manager, they are able to see all the databases, not
only they owned, also other databases they do not have ownership of.
Not that, they can see the tables or the data, but this still
bothers the user(s). How can I restrict the normal users to see only
their database(s) when they logged in thru enterprise manager with
their username and password ?
I aplogize if this quesiton has asked before and answered. If so,
please direct me to the correct link, I could not seek it.
Thank you.Hi,
As far as I know there is a no way to restrict this in enterprise manager.
You can only hide system databases and system tables
from SQL Server's Registration Properties.
Thanks
