I have a DB where all of the tables are owned by a user. I need to move this db from the current server, onto a new one. The server SQL server 7 (both of them). I create the DB on the new server, backup the DB on the old server, restore on the new server, create the user and I can't connect to the db. Why is this? I can't view any tables with any other account for this db on the new server.

moving DB, unable to access the moved db.

sounds like you have got orphaned users (where the SID on the login no longer matches the SID on the new server due to being moved)
run this on your db which should tell you which users have a problem
sp_change_users_login 'report'
then this should fix them
use yourdbname
sp_change_users_login 'Update_One', 'userhere', 'loginhere'
uesr and login are probably the same
check faq183-2153 as well
