Ken,

Select file_name from dba_data_files and filename from dba_temp_files for database files to drop off your hard disk. This will give you a list of files to delete manually if your not using the Oracle Manage files (OMF). Remove the ora process from the startup menu also, so the instance won't start.

Check the init.ora for any directories to remove. Check the alert log file location and remove the alert.log as well as the directory.

select * From v$parameter and look for the control files and redo log files to remove off the hard disk. You will also want to remove the init.ora and spfile if you created one.

I have 9.0.1 installed on my Dell 8200 using XP Prof. Not networked.

I have two DB installed on this machine and I want to uninstall one of them.

I will use Oracle's Universal Installer to de-install the software.

What else should I be doing to make this work properly? I want to keep the demo DB only.

Thanks,
Ken Janusz
