Deleting Databases

If you need to delete a Sage 300 database, you must delete both the database profile and the data files themselves. The database profile consists of the database ID and description.

For example, if you want to free the disk space occupied by sample data that was installed in C:\Program Files\Sage 300, you should complete the tasks in this order:

1. Delete the database profile for the sample company in Database Setup.
2. Delete the database profile for the sample system in Database Setup.
3. Delete the database itself. For more information, see Deleting SQL Server Databases.
4. Delete the data files in DOS or Windows Explorer for each database profile you removed.
