Hi

I have an Output database for a specific purpose. In this database I have view that select data from another more generell database.

How can I set up a Login that can be used to select from the views in the output database, without the login having read access to the generell database?

Thanks!

is it indexed view? if not login has to have read access to underlying object in other databse for it to pull data through the view

then also permission should be provided for login in 2nd db for accessing object.

ok, is it any other way to achieve this?
I don't want the login to see the complet tablen, and only access the information with some filters

Thanks!

Can you set up the Sproc to impersonate a user (who does have access to the other database)? ( I don;t know the answer as I haven't tried using Impersonation at all!)
