  That requires at least one right (any right) on the database itself. One quick workaround is to GRANT some right that is effectively null (e.g. DROP TABLE for a database with no tables or EXECUTE for a database with no macros).  



When I was shown this, the right I was taught to use was CHECKPOINT, which is of very little use or danger all by itself anywhere.
