| Because it's restored from another server and the logins have a different sid so don't map to the database users.(or maybe the logins don't exist on this server?)==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

| Look at the sp_change_users_login procedure. It will map the old user in the database to the database logon while still preserving all permissions assigned at the database level. |
