Greg,

I agree. I am going to name both logins/users with the same name.

Thanks. Mike

Pradeep,

Thanks for the links. I did read through them but still don't completely understand what I need to do.

I've created a login on sqlserver using an Active Directory account...

Pradeep,

If you're creating AD accounts, you dont need to create seperate user ids for accessing databases. They'll use windows authetication to login to the server and then access databases...

I did find this link helpful but would still like some feedback.
