title: Built-in database role in SQL Server 2005 to permit execution of stored procedures?
body: <p>In SQL Server 2005, there are built in roles:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>db_datareader</p>
    
    <p>db_datawriter</p>
    
    <p>etc.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Is there any role that lets a user execute an stored proc?</p>
  
  <p>I don't want to use db_owner, because that will permit deletion and updates, which I don't need. The only permissions I need are:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>SELECT</p>
    
    <p>EXECUTE</p>
  </blockquote>
