not as such. you configure the server to only access to the databse to specific server userid's/roles....and you then attach passwords to the userid's.

Add a database.
Add a user/role to the SQL Server.
(If you go down the role route, you then add a user to the role)
Give the user a password.
Grant the user/role access (update/readonly/executeonly depending on your needs) to the Server.

Practice using EM...and then when familiar with the concept and how the above fits together, lookup the relevent "System SP's" so that you can do it without EM.....EM is alright, but to learn and improve you really need to get to grips with executing things via raw T-SQL.
