ODBC -Connection failed

I create a Test database in SQL server, also I add new user in security folder. Also I add this user in Test database, the permission are: Public, and db_owner. But when I let the user try to open the database, it is ODBC Connection failed. I add another user a few months ago, she works fine. But the new user I added in didnt work, did you know why. I am sure I add the same permission as the later user. Thanks.Even though you added the user at the database level and gave it the different access roles (public and db_owner) - make sure you gave the user Database Access to from the Security/Logins dialog box. On the 3rd tab (Database Access) make sure the Test database is checked.

That might be your problem.

Alex|||Alex, it's impossible to have the user be enrolled into db_owner while not having the user to have a Database Access. Something else is fishy/not clear...

obsolete subscriptions still exist

Hi everyone,
I disabled replication on my local sql server. I would assume publication and subscription folder will be empty after I refresh Enterprise Manager. however that's not the case.
Publication folder is empty after I disabled replication, but subscription folder is not empty, what is going on?
I kept refresh subscription folder under 'replication', I can't get rid of those subscriptions? how can I get rid of them?
thanks
Kevin
Please try running sp_removedbreplication in the relevant databases.
