Hi experts,

I want to clean up a server after moving the databases to another server.

I want to uninstall/remove the 2008 R2 database engine and job agent and integration services - but I need to keep the Native Client.

Will uninstalling any of the other SQL components also cause the Native Client to be uninstalled?

Thanks for any help. Jack
