Is it possible to script out all of the users and permissions for a db to then run against another db? This task takes ages, and if it could be automated in some way, it would help. The dbs are on the same server.

Thanks

I usually use the Generate SQL Scripts wizard in SQL 7. Right click on a table in the source db. Click on All Tasks-->Generate SQL Scripts. Check the Script All Objects check box under Objects to Script:. On the formatting tab, uncheck the CREATE and DROP checkboxes. On the options tab, check the "Script Database Users and Database Roles" and "Script Object-Level Permissions" checkboxes. Click OK to generate the script. You should then be able to run the script in QA for the db you want to add the permissions to.
