Adding table to a FileGroup

I have a Database called Products with 3 big tables Rims, Tires, and Stock
my database is as follows.
Products.mdf and Products.ldf
How can I create file groups for the tables Rims, Tires, and Stock and
attach these tables?
Example:
Products.mdf
Rims.ndf
Tires.ndf
Stock.ndfExample:
ALTER DATABASE Products ADD FILEGROUP stock_filegroup
ALTER DATABASE Products ADD FILE
(NAME = 'stock01',
FILENAME = 'C:\MSSQL\stock01.ndf',
SIZE = 10,
MAXSIZE = 20)
TO FILEGROUP stock_filegroup
The easiest way to move an existing table to another filegroup is to create
or re-create a clustered index:
CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX idx_stock ON Stock (x) ON stock_filegroup
For a non-clustered table you will have to re-create the table.
Typically it's only useful to create separate filegroups if you place the
files on separate physical devices or arrays. I assume that is what you
intend by placing your tables in this way.

Checked other data source
Provider string: DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=SERVER_NAME;UID=TEST;PWD=TEST;
Under Security tab:
Be made using the logins current security context is checked.
Please help!When you say it's not working , do you mean "insufficient permissions!? or
are you getting some othe rmessage?
