Delete a database and its service

Question

I'm assigned the task of deleting some databases from some server.

Deleting a database is easy: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177419.aspx

Seems like there is one service for each database in control panel>administrative tools>services

How can I remove those?

Answer 1

I take it you are referring to instances.

You can just use add/remove programs and select SQL Server 2005. It will give you a list of instances you can select to delete/uninstall.
