Are you talking about as a registered server? You should be able to just right click, and say delete registration (Actually you have to click on it, not just SAY it  ).HTH-Chad |

| Delete is not an option in the right click mode. If it that easy I would have done that. But thanks. |

| hrm... Never seen those greyed out before. Does it throw an error if you highlight the server name and hit the delete key? If it doesn't and you really want it out of there for some reason, you should be able to search the registry for the server name and delete its key from the registered servers list. The general key you should be looking for is Software/Microsoft/Microsoft SQL Server/80/Tools/SQLEW/Registered Servers X and then the name of the server group it's in. It should either be under hkey_current_user or hkey_local_machine depending on the options you have set in EM.As always, editing the registry can be hazerdous to your computer, job security, and small children within a 50 foot radius. Be sure to have a good registry export before making any changes.Jeff BanschbachConsultant, MCDBA |
