Permissions to a standard database role

Q: A standard database role named abc is created and assigned permissions to
db_reader and db_writer roles.
Then the database users are made members to the role abc.
(The DatabaseAccess under users displays viaGroupMembership.)
But why doesnot users have access to the database?
(SQLServer2000)Hi,
Please let me now what error message, if any, you receive when you attempt
to access the database. Also, if you have auditing enabled, what error
message, if any, do you receive in the SQL Error Log or the Application
Event Log?
Based on my test, the configuration you describe should work OK.
Thanks.
Gary
