Using setuid and setgid

Hi,

I have been looking at setuid and setgid.

I understand that setuid determines who owns the file and setgid determines which group of people can access the file... yeah?!

But i need to know how to actually use setuid and setgid. I'm guessing chmod will feature somewhere..

Any help would be greatly appreicated!

Thanks, Sam
