SQL Server permissions question

We're running SQL Server 2008

I want to create a login and give it access to one database (which I did). But, when this login connects via Management Studio, they can see the names of the other databases. How can I hide even the ability to see what other databases exist?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply.

I have a couple of questions.

first, this is a user I've already created. I'm going to delete it.

What is the proper order for creating a user.

Do I first create a Login under Security, then add that user under Users for the database?

How do I "change the Owner" of the database to the new account?
OK, I think I followed the instructions properly.

However, even though the user is the db_owner of the database, when they login, they can see no databases now.

??
OK, I finally got it working.
