We are making changes here at my job - they are switching over to 64-bit SQL servers from 
the 32-bit servers. They've also been implementing connections to Databases via the 
Trusted Connection. But, having to grant permissions for various Databases on a per user 
basis is kinda nuts. So - my manager had learned about the "Impersonating" 
term. So, supposedly you have a general account/user - that could be used to access the 
proper databases - and then each specific user Impersonates that general user. She heard 
from others working in VB/.net - about doing the impersonation - but, it sounds Code 
specific. So, that's why she was trying to figure out how to do it via FoxPro. But, her 
searches on the Web was not really turning up useful information.

So - hopefully someone here can point us in the right direction. And, yes - we 
are using VFP 9 SP2.

I've never heard of 'Impersonating,' but it sounds like all she needs is simply Server authentication.

1) Create a SQL Server Login, under the Security tab, give it a PW, and make it owner of the database in question.

2) Have users login with NT Login, instead of Windows authentication.
