Rename SQL Sever 6.5 Logins

  • Is there a way to rename SQL Server 6.5 Logins?  I would want to change the login name and the user name in each database while retaining all permissions.  I saw a script to do this in FAQ, but that was really written for SQL Server 7/2000.

  • Not sure there's an easy way to do this in 65. Been a long time. I know modifying system tables worked easier in 65 and you might be able to do that. Force an update on syslogins and sysusers

     

  • I've been experimenting, and it looks like modifying syslogins and sysusers will work.  I haven't found any problems so far.  If anyone has any further information -- you've done it and it worked, you've done it and you don't recommend it -- please let me know.

    Thanks.

  • I've done it, and it works.
