Windows Authentication - Connecting To A DB As A Different User In Management Studio


Is there a way to connect to database using Windows authentication as a different user than what you've logged in with to your desktop? 

 

For example:

I log on to my desktop as mydomainme.  I'm developing queries using Management Studio against a database (on another server) where mydomainme doesn't have access, but the admins have granted access to mydomainJobs1.  I have the password for mydomainJobs1, and I'm hoping I can connect to the database using that account without having to log-off my local desktop as mydomainme and then re-login using mydomainJobs1.

 

The analogy in the file/share-permissions world would be using "net use" from a command prompt:

net use \SomeServer /User:mydomainJobs1 jobs1password

 

Anything similar for SSMS?

SQL Sever 2005 Management Studio - Connect As Different Windows User
I want to connect to a SQL server from my workstation using the application in the Subject, but I need to connect as a different Windows user. Basically, I login to my workstation with my "Joe User" account, but for servers I used my "Joe Admin" account for security purposes. However, the Management console autofills in my workstation username when I select "Windows authentication" for the connection, and grays out the username/password fields so that I cannot specify another set of credentials.

 

Is there a way to change this behavior? Otherwise I will need to termserv into a server using my administrative account, install the management software there, and then begin the process. That is a lot of unecessary overhead that I would like to avoid.

 

Thank You,

Connecting To The SQL Server 2000 With Windows Authentication
 

Hi All,
 
I want to know how I can connet to the SQL Server 2000 (using Enterprise Manager or SQL Query Analyzer) with Windows Authentication, but with other user account under different UNTRUSTED domain.
I searched on the Internet and found that I can save my password in the "Manage Passwords" of the "User Accounts" in the Control Panel. But in our company a policy has been setup that prevents us from saving passwords, so this is not working.
I tried runas command like this:
runas /netonly /user:untrusted_domain\%UserName% "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80ToolsBinnisqlw.exe"
But since the usernames are same in both untrusted domains with different passwords, my main user account will be locked out.
 
I wanted to know if anyone knows any solution for this.
Any help is really appreciated.

Windows Authentication - Cannot Generate SSPI Context - Login Failed For User ''. The User Is Not Associated With A Trusted SQL
 
We are looking at developing an SQL Server 2005 Database and I would like to use Windows Authentication rather than SQL Server Authentication to connect our client app.
 
In our development environment, we have two Servers, one being used as a file server and the other as an SQL Server. We have now set up a domain using the file server as the domain controller. (We had previously been set up to use a workgroup).
 
I have set up an active directory group called SqlDevelopers and added an active directory user called Jonathan to it.
 
On the SQL Sever, in management studio, I have set up a new server login which uses windows authentication called DomainSqlDevelopers. I used the GUI to verify I could see the domain and the group.
 
The default database is set to a test database on the server. A user in the test database is mapped to the DomainSqlDevelopers and given the Roles dbo, db_datareader, db_datawriter.
 
To test the log in, on the server, I logged out as administrator and in as Jonathan. I could successfully access the server through management studio using windows authentication.
 
However, if I log in as Jonathan on my client PC and try to access the SQL Server using management studio and windows authentication, I have problems.
 
The first time I try I will get a timeout error. If I try again will get either:
 
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection
 
Or
 
Cannot generate SSPI context
 
I can€™t determine any pattern to which of the above errors I get.
 
However, if I log in as administrator on my client PC, I can connect to the server using management studio and windows authentication.
 
Sounds like Active Directory/Domain or other Network issue (Not really my area). I would be grateful for any help.
 
Thanks,
 
Jon

SQL 2005 Management Studio Authentication Problem
We have a weird problem where when one of our users selects to login into a database using Windows Authentication the wrong login information is passed to the DB.
 

We have two domains (A & B), each with a SQL Server running in them. We have workstations in domain B that the users log into and run Management Studio. When connecting to the database server in domain B using Windows Authentication the correct credentials are passed and everything works great (Busername). In fact, using Windows Authentication to the server in domain A works fine also (Busername) for all but one of our users. For our one user however, when logged into domain B (Busername) and using Management Studio to connect to the server in domain A with Windows Authentication she gets and error saying 'Access Denied: Ausername is an invalid login'. Before connecting the login box actualy reads 'Busername' in the username box (greyed out of course). When looking at the database log from domain A it has an entry saying 'Failed login for Ausername'.
 

I've never seen this before, in fact I've seen a lot of posts asking if this was possible but the answer always was it isn't. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Connecting To SQL Server 2005 Remotely Via Windows Authentication
Hi

I have installed SQL Server 2005 onto a server and then on my client machine I have installed SQL Server 2005 and the Server Management Studio.

When installing it on the server I chose all the defaults so have not setup an sql username or password to connect as I thought I could use Windows.

I go to the Server Management and registered servers, create a new one and enter the ip address of the server and choose Windows Authentication. The following error keeps appearing though and I am not sure what settings/where to check:

Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)


I have checked and think port 1443 is open on the server, tcpip is enabled but when I choose Windows authentication I cannot enter a username or password as it is greyed out. It has completed the username but no password and these are not the correct ones to connect to the server - I wish to wish the same one I use for RDC.

Or should I try SQL Authentication and if so how would I set this up? Cannot see on the server in SQL Configuration where I could set this?

Hope someone who knows a lot more than me on this can help!

Thanks for your time - this has been driving me mad for days now and everything I print off the internet is not help so any feed back or more useful links to loo up would be great.

Cannot Change Server Authentication In Management Studio Express

Connecting To SSIS In Management Studio.
Hi:

I have 4 named instances of SQL 2005 running on one of our sales server (dont ask me why I have 4 instances.Its a beefy box btw). All the instances have SSIS Packages (around 6-7 in each instance) saved to the SQL server and not to the file system. The issue is every time i need to look at the packages or export the packages from SSMS I have to edit the MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml and type in the named instance name within the <ServerName></ServerName> tag . I then have to restart my SSIS. I dont see an easier approach to this method.

This is causing me a lot of unnecessary time waste. is there anyway this can be automated where in i can pass the instance name dynamically to the ini file or even more best, can I have all the instance names in the ini file and some how look at the packages in each Instance. I am not sure how having all the instance names in the ini file woud resolve the issue though.

I know I can use BIDS which is much more flexible and a recommended approach but need a solution for looking at SSIS packages through SSMS in all of the 4 instances. I look forward to recommendations from anyone who have better ideas and suggestions.

Thank you

Error Connecting In Management Studio
Hello,

I am having problems connecting to my SQL Server instance with Management Studio; basically the setup is as follows;

*Single server running windows 2003 enterprise - in a workgroup not domain
*SQL Server is installed on this machine
*When I try and connect from the same machine using its own IP address and Windows authentication I get the 18452 error "login failed for {NULL} user"

I am testing it like this because Sharepoint is failing in configuration wizard because it is connecting the same way - at least the login failure audit logs say the same.

Many thanks for answers

Problems Connecting To Server Using Management Studio
Hi all,
I got this problem which makes me struggle in the last few days.
I am able to connect to my local server using a query analyzer or calling sql commands in a window application, but there's no way I can access it in Management Studio: by clicking "Connect" it just waits forever, and it doesn't respond to any other command (it must be shut by terminating the process)
Got any hints?

SQL Server Management Studio - Connecting To Serve
I am trying to connect to a sql server 2005 server using either the SQL Server Management Studio program using either windows auth or sql server auth but I can not. When I click on the connect button to connect to a server it never connects. I can not cancel once I press connect. It never times out after I press connect. I removed all registered servers that were registered previously. I have uninstalled all software that involved sql server (and sql2000) run a registry cleaner(not microsofts), installed the software to a new directory and still I can not connect to the sql2005 server (the only db).


I tested the connection from my machine to the production database system using osql and it worked fine. I registered the server tested the connection (using the management studio) and it tested fine. When I try to connect to the database engine it does not work.


When I had another user login to my machine and launch the SQL Server Management Studio I noticied that it ran a configuration utility for first use. When I uninstalled the SQL Server Management Studio on my machine it never came up again. Is there any way that I can get the configuration utility to run again on my account?

Any ideas? Things to test?

Trying To Create A New User With Windows Authentication For My Sql Database
I have a website written in asp.net and the current DATABASE logins do not use windows authenticaton. They are for online use only with a username and password.  I'm trying to run my program locally on my machine and access the database locally.  This is very frustrating. I'm able to connect to my database, but I can't login to it.  Here's my connection string from ym webconfig file:
<add name="sqlConnectionString" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" connectionString="Connect Timeout=8; Initial Catalog=linkexchanger; Data Source=SCOTSQLEXPRESS; "/>
I have the MSSQL engine running and I have connected with the SERVER.  My database is in my directory tree of Microsoft SQL Management Studio Express.  The server is SCOTSQLEXPRESSI have attempted to add a login to my sql database by right clicking on the security folder to create a new login.  My understanding is that under windows, I don't need a uid and pwd in my connection string .  Thus I tried removing all of this just as you see above, and I get an error message every single time I try to create a login with windows authentication.
Can someone please explain how I make this work? 
Thank you.

Installing Management Studio On Windows XP Pro SP2 With SQL Server Express Installed
I'm attempting to install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition Management Tools [only] on my workstation which is running Widows XP Pro SP2. I already have VSTS 2005 installed with SQL Server Express and Management Studio Express Edition.

 

Attempting to do an advanced install with just the Management Tools specified under Client Components, results in the Version Check warning that setup must be run with SKUUPGRADE=1 specified. When I do that, the installation fails with an unexpected error. Clicking the 'Help' button, displays the following info:

 

   LinkID                 20476

   Product Name     Microsoft SQL Server

   Product Version   9.00.2047.00

   Message ID         50000

   EvtType               packageengineinstallpackageaction.cpp@InstallToolsAction.11@sqls::InstallPackageAction:erform@0x643

 

Sending the info results in:

 

We're sorry

There is no additional information about this issue in the Error and Event Log Messages or

Knowledge Base databases at this time.

 

which isn't much help. I'd appreciate any suggestions on installing the full version of Management Studio other

than uninstalling SQL Server Express...

Login Failed For User '(null)' Error When Trying To Use Windows Authentication
I'm working on an ASP.NET project, and we're attempting to switch from SQL Server authentication to Windows authentication to connect to the database.
It works fine locally when I debug in Visual Studio, but when it hits the web server, I get the error: "Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection."
IIS has anonymous access disabled, and Integrated Windows Authentication is checked. The web.config file has:
<authentication mode="Windows"/><identity impersonate="true"/>
The database I'm attempting to access is on a different machine than IIS, and the connection string doesn't contain a username or password, and has "Trusted_Connection=Yes", and "Integrated Security=SSPI".
From what I've been able to find online, I'm guessing the problem is due to IIS and SQL Server residing on different machines, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
Any ideas?

Enter the user name to connect with. This option is only available if you have selected to connect using Windows Authentication.
 
I can connect with either SQL Server or Windows authentication... but with Windows Authentication I'd love to be able to type a specific user name to select with :-)

Intranet, Windows Authentication, Sql Server Login Failed For User '(null)'
Hi--
I am building an intRAnet website using windows authentication for website access and SQL Server access ( Trusted_Connection = true ).
In IIS I have these settings:

Allow Anonymous = unchecked (false)
Windows Authentication = Checked (true)
Digest windows = checked (true)
In my Web.Config file:

authentication="windows"
impersonate="true"
allowusers="*"
When I pull up the page these are my credentials:
Security.Principal.Windows:                  mydomainmyuserid (this is correct what it shows on my page)
Me.User.Identity:                                  mydomainmyuserid (this is correct what it shows on my page)
Threading.currentThread.currentUser    mydomainmyuserid (this is correct what it shows on my page)
 
So the ASP.NET page recognizes it is me and my domain.  However, when i click a button to pull some data from a database I get the error message: Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
My data access on SQL Server works fine.  The weird thing is when I debug on my machine it pulls data fine.  but when I copy the files to the windows 2003 server it doesn't work. 
Do i have to do something with delegation?

Failed DTS Package Locks User Out Of SQL2005 (Windows Authentication) ... For Good!
Would be interested in any advice or comment on the issue we are experiencing with SQL 2005.

In order to test some DTS package migrations, we simply created a DTS package on SQL 2000 (using Export) to copy all database objects from one database to another.

Then we restored the source database on SQL 2005 server, migrated the DTS package, and tried to execute it.

The package migrated 'fine', ran part way, and then failed.  Since then we have been unable to connect to the server (Database Engine, or Integration Services) using Windows Authentication.  (Error 18456, Sev 16, State 11).

We can connect to the Database Engine using SQL Authentication (but not to Integration Services which only allows Windows Authentication).

We have been able to replicate this consistently - every annoying time we've tried it!

(Reinstalling SQL Server does 'fix' the issue ... until you try a similar package again).

Can't Access Reporting Services In Management Studio Or Web Interface Using Windows Integrated Security
I know from searching this forum that there have been many variations of the issue I'm currently suffering, but I haven't found anything quite like mine or a solution to solve it. The issue I'm running into is that I am unable to log on to Reporting Services using Management Studio or the web interface when Windows Integrated Security is enabled. I have full functionality using basic security, but the risks involved make it impossible to deploy basic authentication out into production. The error I'm receiving in Management Studio is The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient). I recieve the same error when I try the web interface.
 
I've looked the most recent logfile in WindowsSystem32LogFilesW3SVC1 and these entries match up to the time I attempted my authentication.

I tried to highlight one of each of the HTTP errors I am getting. 401.2 and 401.1 are the ones I kind of expected, but have no idea why I'm getting them. The 500 0 error is a bit troubling, because unless I'm mistaken thats a server side error.
 
Here's my current setup. As far as I can tell, I've done everything to set up correctly for Windows Integerated security.
 


My Specs
The server machine running all SQL 2005 services. It resides in a domain. All Clients are in the same domain.


Intel Dual Processor 3.20 gig Xenon

Windows Server 2003 w/ SP2

Microsoft Sql Server 2005 w/ SP2
Reporting Services Setup
The virtual directories Reports and ReportServer are set to Windows Integrated Security with Anonymous Access disabled. All other checkboxes in Directory Security are unchecked. For permissions in Reports, I have:


Administrators (servernameAdministrators) - Full Control

ASP.NET Machine Account - Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write

Authenticated Users - Modify, Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write

Creator Owner - No permissions

Domain Users - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SQLServer2005ReportingServices]WebServiceUsers$... - Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SQLServer2005ReportServerUsers$... -  Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read

SYSTEM - Full Control

Users (CompNameUsers) -  Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read
In ReportServer I have the same permissions except Authenticated Users is absent.
 
At one point, I even added the account Everybody and gave it full control, and I still recieved a HTTP 401 error. Any help at what I might be missing would be a godsend.

What User Is Used When Executing An SSIS Package From Management Studio?
 

All:
 
I am working with a package that executes a stored procedure.  This stored procedure makes use of a Linked Server.  When I execute it in debug mode in VS 2005, it works flawlessly.  However when I deploy it to the production server and execute it by going to Management Studio, connecting to Integration Services, navigating to MSDB, right clicking and choosing "run package" I get the infamous:
 
Login failed for user '(null)'. Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection.  OLE DB Provider SQLNCLI for linked server [name] returned message "Communication Link Failer"
 
error.  If I execute the stored procedure by itself on the production server, it works flawlessly.  It is only when this stored procedure gets executed via the above mentioned way inside of an SSIS pack that I get this error.  To me this suggest it is being executed as a different user, but I don't know which one.
 
Any help would be wonderful.
 
Thank you in advance...

User Token Is Different When SP Is Executed In Management Studio Vs Application
Hello,
 
I have a stored procedure that outputs login token and user token information.  The stored procedure has

WITH EXECUTE AS CALLER specified.
 
When I execute the stored procedure from Management Studio I get the following output from the stored procedure  

 

<login_token pid="267" sid="AQUAAAAAAAUVAAAAdbl1VI3r6l4jX2Nr0AYAAA==" name="MYDOMAINjoe" type="WINDOWS LOGIN" />

<login_token pid="2" sid="Ag==" name="public" type="SERVER ROLE" />

<login_token pid="3" sid="Aw==" name="sysadmin" type="SERVER ROLE" />

<login_token pid="257" sid="AQIAAAAAAAUgAAAAIAIAAA==" name="BUILTINAdministrators" type="WINDOWS GROUP" />

... (more groups)

<user_token pid="7" sid="AQUAAAAAAAUVAAAAdbl1VI3r6l4jX2Nr0AYAAA==" name="MYDOMAINjoe" type="WINDOWS LOGIN" />

<user_token pid="0" name="public" type="ROLE" />

<user_token pid="16" name="approleDirector" type="ROLE" />

<user_token pid="16384" name="db_owner" type="ROLE" />

 
 
 
When I execute the stored procedure through my application (IIS application connecting to SQLServer 2005 through SQL Native Client - not .NET)
I get the following


<login_token pid="267" sid="AQUAAAAAAAUVAAAAdbl1VI3r6l4jX2Nr0AYAAA==" name="MYDOMAINjoe" type="WINDOWS LOGIN" />

<login_token pid="2" sid="Ag==" name="public" type="SERVER ROLE" />

... (more groups)

<user_token pid="1" sid="AQUAAAAAAAUVAAAAdbl1VI3r6l4jX2Nr4QQAAA==" name="dbo" type="WINDOWS LOGIN" />

 
The login token is the same but the user token is dbo instead of the actual user.
 

What am I doing wrong?

How Can I See My Databases In Management Studio Express, As A Limited User?

SQL Database User Account Access Remotely Via SQL Management Studio Express
Hi, I hope you can help.I have configured a Windows 2003 web server and SQL 2005 Server (on same box) to successfully allow remote connections and to allow access via SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.The problem I have is that I want to restrict access to the databases on the server via the Management Studio to specific databases e.g. 1 database user "sees" only 1 database.I can configure it so that the user's remote  access permissions do not allow access to other databases but they can still "see" the database listed in the Management Studio explorer.I can also configure it so that the users cannot see all the databases (by disabling View All Databases on SQL Server), but this means that they cannot not see their own database which they have permissions for.Is it impossible to have the desired behaviour of only displaying the database which the remote user accessing has permissions for and hiding all other databases?I have MSN'd,Googled and Yahoo'd this one to no avail :(Many thanksFergus

Connecting VB Express Files To SQL Server Management Studio Express
Really confused ...  I created 2 tables in a VB Express program (which went well).  Problem is that I can't see/find those tables with MSME.  I don't really understand how to connect the MSME to where the tables are.  I created the tables under My DocumentsData  and they are DBapp.mdf + DBapp_log.LDF and the tables are Items and Preferences.  The VB application can "see" the tables OK.

Do I need to move the tables to C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSQL.1MSQLDATA (like the Adventureworks installation which I haven't done) or what?

Sql Authentication = Fast./ Windows Authentication = V.slow!
Hello,

(Using win2k, sqlserver2k, framework 1.1)
I have an fairly data-heavy application that uses Windows authentication (Trusted connection/aspnet account) to connect to Sql Server. The site uses IIS basic authentication.

On the dev server everything works fine but when I move to the live server things get strange and it starts to crawl along. (Pages load OK but then it just crawls as it loads the datagrids etc. Sometimes it brings back incomplete/incorrect data )

BUT When I use Sql Authentication to connect to Sql Server and there is no problem at all!

Ok, there is something obviously wrong with the live server (which is identical setup to dev)but I dont know where to start.

Any ideas??

Using SQL Authentication And Windows Integrated Authentication Concurrently
Hi all,

I've got two applications which both have a database on my MS SQL 2000 server. The problem is, one application must use Windows Integrated Authentication (which it is currently using and cannot be changed) whilst the other application which I'm trying to configure must use a SQL password.

Since the server has already been configured to use Windows Integrated Authentication for the existing database and application, how do I configure the other database to use the SQL password?

Thanks.

Authentication An Application Using Windows Integrated Authentication
Hi all,

My work is using a shared application
which accesses a MSSQL 2000 database. To access the application, the
folder on the Windows 2003 Server is shared and users can access the
folder through a shared drive.


For the application to access the
database, it uses an ODBC connection to the MSSQL server which
originally used the SA password.


We have recently switched to using
Windows Integrated Authentication because we believe it offers a
higher level of security. However the only way in which we have been
able to enable this is to add the windows users to the SQL server.


The problem with this is that the
application sets permissions for individual users on what records
they can see within the database. We have found that by adding the
windows users to the SQL Server, they can bypass the permissions the
set by the application by simply using any application that can use
an ODBC connection, such as Enterprise Manager, and see all the
database.

One way around this would be to set up
domains of users with access privileges to the tables which reflect
the permissions set by the application, and configuring a view of the
data so they may only see the records that they have permissions to.
However to do this would require a high administrative cost to ensure
that changes made in the application are reflected in the privileges
of the SQL server.

Instead, is there a way the SQL server
can authenticate that the ODBC connection is coming from the correct
application using Windows Integrated Authentication?

This would allow the applcation to
determine security, and stop users from connecting to the SQL server
using other applications.

Alternatively, can the SQL server,
using Windows Integrated Authentication, also ask the application to
supply a username and password?

Any help with this matter would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

How To Configure SQL Server Management Studio Express To Allow Doing Non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 From VB 2005 Express?
Hi all,
 
For the first time, I want to set up the configuration of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to allow me in doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. The SSMSE and VB 2005 Express are in my Windows XP Pro PC that is part of our NT 4 LAN System in our office.  I read the article "How to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remotre connections" in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277/  about (i) "Enable remote connections for SQL Server 2005 Express", (ii) Enable the SQL Server Browser service", (iii) Create exception in Windows Firewall, and (iv) Create an exception for the SQL Server Browser service in Windows Firewall. I entered the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration and I could not decide what options I should take for doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express.  I have the following questions on the page of "Minimize SQL Server 2005 Surface Area":
(1)  I saw "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]".   I clicked on  [change computer] and I saw the
      following:   Select Computer
                      The Surface Area Configuration of this surface area of this computer or a remote computer.
                      Specify a computer to configure:  O Local computer
                                                                       O Remote computer
                       Should I choose the "Local computer" or the "Remote computer" option?
(2) Below the "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]", 
    I clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Service and Connections",  Select a component and then configure its services and connections:  |-|  SQLEXPRESS
                                          |-| Database Engine
                                                    Service
                                I picked =>   Remote Connection
       On the right-hand side, there are:     O Local connections only
                                                            O Local and remorte connections
                                                                   O Using TCP/IP
                                                                   O Using named pipes only
                                                                   O Using both TCP/IP and named pipes
                        Should I choose   O Local and remorte connections and O Using named pipes only?
 
Please help and tell me what options I should choose in (1) and (2).
 
Thanks in advance,

SQL Server Management Studio Express: User Instances Listed/founded In SSEUtil - How They Got In And Stay In SSEUtil?
I have used SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) and Visual Basic 2005 Express (VBE) for more than one year to pick up the Transect-SQL, ADO.NET 2.0, SQL Server 2005 Express, SQLCLR, etc.  Yesterday, I used SSEUtil to execute: 
C:SSEUtil>SSEUtil -l
I got the following:
1. master
2. tempdb
3. model1
4. msdb
5. 56713D4D965AE4455_TSVISUAL STUDIO 2005PROJECTSMYFIRSTAPPSSE-VBEXPRESS-WINDOWSAPPLICATION1BINDEBUGMYDB1.MDF
6. C:DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGSCOTT H CHANGMY DOCUMENTSVISUAL STUDIO 2005PROJECTSMASTERDETAILMASTERDETAILBINDEBUGMYDB1.MDF
7. C:ADONET2CODE-JOHNSONVBCHAPTER02CONNECTEDCLASSESSETBINDEBUGPUBS.MDF
8. C:PROGRAM FILESMICROSOFT SQL SERVERMSSQL.1MSSQLDATANORTHWIND.MDF
9. C:ADVENTUREWORKSLTADVENTUREWORKSLT_DATA.MDF
I created some VBE projects and used some examples from some tutorial books and websites in the past. But, I thought that user instance timeout is 60 minutes and user instances should be gone after 60 minutes.  Why do I have the above-mentioned user instances remained in SSEUtil now?  Please explain this thing for me.
 
Thanks,
Scott Chang
