SQL permissions always apply in SQL-Server. If your users don't have
permissions, they won't be able to read/write data to SQL-Server.

Either the permissions in the SQL-Server database are not correctly set up,
or you have not accessed the data using those user accounts. Both situations
are possible. If you used integrated security on the SQL-Server, you may
have not sufficiently granularized those permissions. If you think that your
setup is correct, I'd describe your setup in a SQL-Server newsgroup,
perhaps:

microsoft.public.sqlserver.security

and ask why your permissions don't seem to be holding.

After a few readings, I'm still not understanding what you're trying to
explain in your posts. You should explain with details what you are doing
exactly and what are those permissions that you are talking about and what
you mean exactly with the words "they don't apply".
