Do you mean database as in an Oracle database? You want to drop all control files, all log files, all datafiles, the tempfile?

Or are you a SQL Server person that has avoided reading anything on the subject, is blindly mucking about, and think that database in Oracle means the same thing as database in SQL Server: It does not.

I'm inclined to agree with IANAL_VISTA. If you have to ask ... you have no business doing it.
