How do I create a SQL table under a different schema?

1. Right-click on the tables node and choose New Table...
2. With the table designer open, open the properties window (view -> Properties Window).
3. You can change the schema that the table will be made in by choosing a schema in the properties window.

Try running CREATE TABLE [schemaname].[tableName]; GO;

This assumes the schemaname exists in your database. Please use CREATE SCHEMA [schemaname] if you need to create a schema as well.

EDIT: updated to note SQL Server 11.03 requiring this be the only statement in the batch.
