"simple" security?

I've heard that SQL Server's security system is good, but complicated. What
is the easiest way to:
1. Limit who can make structural changes to the database, including stored
procedures.
2. Limit read access to certain tables or fields, and limit write access for
others.
At this point, I don't need something totally bulletproof. Just plain
serviceable would do for the time being.There are some database roles called db_datareader and db_datawriter that
allow a user to either read or write to tables. Apart from those, you could
just not grant any rights at all to a user, but give him explicit SELECT,
INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE permissions on a table. You can find a brief overview
of SQL Server security model at:
