Property Owner is not available for Database.. err

Sometimes when trying to get to database Properties I get an SMO error:
Property Owner is not available for Database…. This property may not exist for this object, or may not be retrievable due to insufficient access rights. When logging as sa I get the same error.
Did you try from different server?
If you don’t get the same error on different machine try to reistall client tools..

same thing on a different server.
What version of service pack you have?

Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio9.00.2047.00, which I beleive is SP1.
How would I upgrade the client tools that are on the server without upgrading the sql server?

I have not done this but…
When you run service pack setup at some point you see the option where you can uncheck the check boxes if you don’t want to apply the SP.

it seems to matter not. I ave SP1 on both the server and MS, on my desktop and all the servers, you name it.. Still getting the ugly error.
The way I got around that is altering authorization manually.
Thanks anyway.
