    I need differences between Roles, Schemas, Users and Logins. Can anyone help me. Thanks in advance

    Have you looked them up on the Books Online? If so, what did you not understand from there?

    Here's a bit to get you started:

    Login = Server

    User = Database

    Schema = Object Owner

    Role = Security aggregation.
