i know how to create users and login in a database, i.e using enterprise manager ,by GUI tools provided, but i dont know how to by querying..

Creating users via an application is usually a bad idea.

Look at sp_adlogin, sp_adduser - the application will need to connect with the privileges to do this or use the agent to run it as sa.

Also think about using roles and adding the user to the role using nt security.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
