You might try something like this

export with no data
import with the list option so that you put a copy of ALL the SQL into a text file, but it is not actually executed
Edit the text file to extract and change the specifics features you need for a new user, making it identical to the existing user
Run the script you just created

This way you "know" you have all privs,roles,etc taken care of. Received on Wed Mar 14 2007 - 08:48:09 CDT
