Lesson 4: Convert User1 to a user-extended role and grant that role to User2 (Sybase Central)

Assume that you want User2 to have the same privileges and roles as User1. Rather than going through the same lengthy process of explicitly granting the roles and privileges as you did with User1, you can convert User1 to a user-extended role and grant that role to User2. User1 continues to be a user who can log in to the database, in addition to being a role.
