Hi,I have restored the sql server express 2005 database (db1) from one machine into the sql server express 2008 on another machine.I can see, the user login user1 is also present in sql 2008.Now I think I should add this user under security folder in sql 2008 but when I do, it says the user already exists.And therefore, I am still unable to login to a sql query analyser window by something like:./sqlexpressusername: user1pwd: passwordWhat do I do to solve t his please?Thanks |
