Hey friends,

I have a default instance running on SQL Server 2005, i had done replication for a database from a production server to backup server but somehow something went wrong, now i need to delete this replication. I have deleted Subscriber successfully. The problem is that i cannot delete Publisher and Distributor from my production server. Whenever i try to delete publisher SQL Server hangs up and users cannot access it, also it never gives any warning massage or any error, I have to do end task to sqlserver.exe.

Please help me

Thanks in advance

Try the sp_removedbreplication proc to clean up replication objects.
