Use the management console to generate a script for your users and thier associated permissions. Same can be done for the server logins in the security folder.
Select your user:
Select DB and expand security\users folder
Right Click –> Script User As –> Create To –> New Query
For Logins
Select your Login:
Expand security\logins folder
Right Click –> Script Login As –> Create To –> New Query
Now just run the query on your new instance. Just choose the db to run the script in.
