    What kind of RIGHTS should I give to an user who just wants to see or use the SQL Profiler?

    Thanks in advance.

    With Windows Authentication mode, the user account that runs SQL Profiler must be granted permission to connect to an instance of SQL Server.

    hi,<br /><br />and if runs on sql authentication mode then :<br /><br />EXEC sp_addlogin 'hemant' -- add login for user hemant<br />EXEC sp_grantdbaccess 'hemant' --grant db access for user hemant<br />EXEC sp_addrole 'sysadmin' -- if sysadmin role is not added<br />EXEC sp_addsrvrolemember 'hemant', 'sysadmin' -- sysadmin is required role in order to enable user to run SQL Profiler<br /><br /><br />[<img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-1.gif' alt=':)' />]<br />Regards<br /><br /><br /><br />Hemantgiri S.

    Thanks to both Satya and Hemantgiri.

    But my problem is that the user should have only the rights to use profiler and should not be able to use anything else.

    Thanks in advance

    hi Durgesh,<br />AFAIK you have to assign "sysadmin" to the user in order to permit him for profiler <br /><br /><br />[<img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-1.gif' alt=':)' />]<br />Regards<br /><br />Hemantgiri S.
