Login Name needed

  • HI All,

    I've attached a data base from a software vendor, he has users defined,

    for his data base

    (who own objects)  However there is no login name assoicated wiht the users.

    Is there a way to change a user adding a login name?  In Enterpise Managert I can't see how to do it.

     

    Thanks

  • It depends on how the softwar itself defines it's user structure. SOme folks use tables, some try SQL logins, some use tables to define SQL logins. You need to discuss with the vendor to find out more detail.

  • I'm not sure that there's an easy way in Enterprise Manager if at all. However, in T-SQL using Query Analyzer you can do this using the system stored procedure sp_change_users_login.

  • Thanks for the tip.

    sp_change_user_login does the trick.
