How to script Sprocs permissions in Management Studio?

I am dissapointed that script options are missing in Management Studio. I
never understand why a good feature goes away in a newer version.
Is there any way to script the permissions for stored procedures?
John Dalberg
Depends on how you script them. If you select the stored
procedure and select "Script Stored Procedure" you won't get
the permissions. If you go from the database level, Tasks
and Generate SQL Scripts (or whatever other ways there are
to invoke the Generate SQL Server Scripts Wizard, you have
more options in the scripting. If you script the stored
procedures for the database and select to include object
level permissions, the grants will be scripted with the
stored procedures.

Not in SQL Server 2005. I found out later that it can be done at the
database level. Still not as convenient as pre 2005.

how to script security permissions?

I have a very large table that is refreshed periodically. Since it's
so big, I do a 'drop table', 'create table', 'create index' then a bulk
load. It's much faster than doing a 'delete from'. I also do a
'shrinkdb' as part of this process.

The problem, however, is that the user permissions are also dropped in
this process. So, how can I script the user permissions? For example,
how do I give 'MyUser' select access to 'MyTable' in 'MyDB'? Many
thanks!!

So why not do a TRUNCATE TABLE instead? This is a minimally logged
operation, and you maintain indexes, permissions etc.

I guess you can do this with DMO, if you want to do this programmatically.
However, I have not used DMO myself.

Although keeping indexes is sometimes a good thing, it's also sometimes
beneficial to drop all indexes before the truncate and only add them
back when all the data loading is complete.

Of course, it depends on how the data loading is being managed (in my
case, I happen to be loading 3 1/2 million records from a non-R DBMS,
and having to do it one row at a time - I'd rather not have the indexes
rebuilt for every insert)

Damien|||Thank you, everyone. I did not know about the TRUNCATE TABLE option.
But accomplishing this objective using DROP TABLE, CREATE TABLE, and so
on, has required that I learn many other SQL Server methods, so it's
good for me. I spent more time developing the solution but SQL Server
doesn't care one way or the other and both methods still get the job
done in the same amount of time. So, once again, thanks everyone for
your input!

How to script permissions?

I'm using SQL Server 2000. I have an application that uses three
databases. Currently, when a new user is added (Windows Integration),
I go to each database, create the login then go to each spoc and give
that user rights.
Is there a faster more efficient way to do this? For example, I have
maybe two or three scripts (for various permission levels) that I can
drop in a user name and it does everything?
Thanks,
BrettYou could probably use the GRANT statement and dynamic SQL to do the trick.

>|||Or, add the user to a Windows Group, and give that Group permissions.|||The Windows Group sounds like a good solution.
To be more automated, I'd like to build this process into application
deployment. Are there any spocs I can run to setup a new user login
and then start assigned specific permissions to objects in a database?
Thanks,
Brett|||If you want the user to have execute permission to every proc you could
use this
--Grab all the procedures for the current DB
SELECT IDENTITY(INT,1,1) AS ID,
SPECIFIC_NAME
INTO #Procedurelist
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES --Only Procs
WHERE OBJECTPROPERTY(OBJECT_ID(SPECIFIC_NAME),
'IsMSShipped') =0
AND ROUTINE_TYPE='PROCEDURE'
ORDER BY SPECIFIC_NAME
DECLARE
@.Loopid INT,
@.MaxId INT,
@.UserName VARCHAR(50)
--This is the user that will get the execute permissions
SELECT @.UserName = 'SomeUser'
--Grab start and end values for the loop
SELECT @.Loopid = 1,
@.MaxId = MAX(ID)
FROM #Procedurelist
DECLARE
@.SQL VARCHAR(500),
@.ProcName VARCHAR(400)
--This is where the loop starts
WHILE @.Loopid <= @.MaxId BEGIN
--grab the procedure name
SELECT @.ProcName = SPECIFIC_NAME
FROM #Procedurelist
WHERE ID = @.Loopid
--construct the statement
SELECT @.SQL = 'GRANT EXECUTE ON ' + @.ProcName + ' TO ' + @.UserName
PRINT (@.SQL) --change PRINT to EXECUTE if you want it to run
automatically
--increment counter
SET @.Loopid = @.Loopid + 1
END
--clean up
DROP TABLE #Procedurelist

How to save entire database structure without data?

I want to save a complete copy of the database structure without any of the
data. Tables, Sprocs, Permissions, Triggers, etc.
How do I go about doing this and getting EVERYTHING except the data? Thanks

You can create script for the entire object in the database. Right
click on the database and select Tasks then Generate Scripts which
will open a window of SQL Server Scripts Wizard. The rest is self
explanotary.
