Environment: SQL Server 2005 on Windows Server 2003

I want to have a user with read only access to all databases even those that will be created or attached in the future. Is this possible? If yes, how?

Probably if you add the user to model any new databases will inherit the permissions.


==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.

You are right. It worked for new databases but didn't work for attached databases.

Thanks Nigel!
