I have Sql server 2005, Sql server 2008 Express, Sql server 2008 Developer installed in my machine.
I want to uninstall just the SQL SERVER 2008 Developer edition and reinstall it.

What is the best way to uninstall SQL SERVER 2008 DEVELOPER edition from my machine and how?

Thanks!

You would specify what to uninstall. It asks you.

I uninstalled from Control panel -> Sql server 2008 R2 -> It asked me which specific instance to uninstall -> selected the Sql server 2008 developer R2 instance.
