How do I grant read access for a user to a database in SQL Server?

Viewed 197571

I want to grant access to a user to a specific database with read and write access. The user is already available in the domain but not in the DB.

So, how can I give them that access with creating a new user and password?

Someone told me that it can be done with only specifying the user, domain & the DB that you want to give the user the access to without needing to create a new user and password.

This is the old way that I was implementing. It works but it creates a new login and user rather than using the one that is available in the domain:

use DBName;
create login a_2 with password='Aa123';
create user a_2 for login a_2;
grant insert to a_2;
grant select to a_2;
