Create basic user for one database

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



We have several databases split on our network, with the front end on each
machine & the back end on the server.

I have created individual users with passwords & assigned them to groups,
usually the default 'Users' groups, so that I can specify at a group level
what each individual has access to in each database.

Now we are creating a new database & management would like to have a generic
user called 'Service' with no password. This user needs to be able to log in
to this one particular database and run a query that will create a temp file,
then it will merge the data with a Word template. All is done, except for
setting up the security.

I tried to create a new user called 'Service', and remove it from all of the
groups. I got a message saying that I could not remove it from the default
User's group. Not sure what to do now; this user is only authorized to open
just this one database from any pc. By it being in the 'User' group, they can
open anything without a password.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Connie
