Restore database with SP

I receive a backup of a database, e.g. GImport. This backup is put on my
ftp-server and I need to restore the database on my databaseserver - the
GImport db is not currently on the server. Totally I need to perform the
following tasks:
1. Restore the database from the backup file. The name must be "GImport"
2. Move the restored files (db+log) to another location
3. Give the user myUsr read-access to all tables in the database
I have consulted BOL and I have made the following code
RESTORE FILELISTONLY
FROM DISK = 'c:\ftp\mp-back.dat'
RESTORE database GImport
FROM DISK = 'c:\ftp\mp-back.dat'
WITH NORECOVERY,
MOVE 'MP' TO 'D:\Data\mpgi.mdf',
MOVE 'MP_log' TO 'D:\Data\mpgi_log.ldf'
GO
It works fine ... kindda ... The database is created and the files are
moved to the correct location. But when I try to access the database via
Enterprise Mgr the database is "greyed out" and it says (Loading) besides
the name.
When running the code in QU I get the result:
Processed 132032 pages for database 'GImport', file 'MP' on file 1.
Processed 1 pages for database 'GeusImport', file 'MP_log' on file 1.
RESTORE DATABASE successfully processed 132033 pages in 46.329 seconds
(23.346 MB/sec).
... but the database remains grey and inaccessible
Do I need something else in my code above or is the problem caused by
something else?
Thanks,
:o)

Yes! it works ... thanks a lot for your prompt reply :o)
The last task I need to perform is to grant a sql-login on my
databaseserver select access on all tables in the newly restored database.
However if I look in BOL it seems that it is only possible to grant access
to a object like a table or view. Is this correct?
Thanks again,

on all objects.
