I appreciate your quick reply, Don, but am not sure I expressed the
problem sufficiently.

Using Active Directory in W2K3 server, we defined specific user groups
for each of three domains that need to access the database. Each user
appears in only one group. All of these groups have been added to SQL
Server, and all have the same rights to the database(s). The problem
seems to occur for several people in each group, and does not seem to be
related to any permissions they are allowed on the domain. For
instance, in one of the groups, one user is a standard DOMAIN USER in
Windows, and he is able to perform updates to any of the tables in the
database; another user is a DOMAIN ADMIN who belongs to the same group,
but he is denied access to perform updates.

If we assign the group SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR priveleges on the database,
it seems to resolve the problem, but thats not an acceptable resolution
for this large office.

If we assign each individual user (rather than the groups) to SQL, the
problem goes away. Again, this is a large office, and they would like
to avoid the additional overhead of having to add each new user to both
Windows and SQL Server.
