Can grant truncate table permission to a user?

Question

Whether can grant  truncate table permission to a user separately.
I know that the role db_ddladmin can do,but the create,alter and drop permissions will be granted the same time(These permissions are not what we want to
grant to user).
Is there any solution?
Best regards!!
If you haven't all the things you want,be grateful for the things you don't have that you didn't want.

You can't grant truncate because for whatever reason, that permission doesn't exist.  What you can do is use a stored procedure and use EXECUTE AS OWNER to get around it.
create database foo
go
create login foobar with password = 'alkdsfji9eorngv';
go
use foo
go
create user foobar from login foobar;
go
create table test(rowid int identity)
go
insert into test default values;
go
select * from test
go
create procedure dbo.truncate_test
with execute as owner
as
truncate table test
go
grant execute on dbo.truncate_test to foobar
go
execute as login='foobar'
execute dbo.truncate_test
revert
go
select * from test
go
use master
go
drop database foo
drop login foobar
This keeps your database safe and allows you to grant execute on the truncate procedure to allow them to truncate the table.Jonathan Kehayias
