Connecting to database using Contained Database Authentication

SQL Server 2012 introduces a new feature called Contained Database Authentication. The Contained Database Authentication feature allows the database to partially contain the data that was  previously stored outside the database.

Connecting to database using Contained Database Authentication

You need to specifically specify the database name on which you want to connect or tell exactly which database to authenticate the user; for that go to the Connection Properties page as shown below and specify the name of the database and then try connecting.




Once successfully authenticated and connected to the database, the user will see the database.
