  Hi,

  How can I use a different Windows user account than the one I'm currently logged into in Windows when connecting

  to SQL sever using Managment studio? The user name is currently grayed out. In this case I can not use "runas".

  Thanks!!

  If you cannot use runas or ShellRunAs - then you are not going to be able to do what you are asking.
