Hello Team,

I had replication setup on my server and now I want to drop this set up.

I have deleted publisher and subscriber but distribution database is still there. I get following information when I try to drop this database.

Cannot drop the database 'distribution' because it is being used for replication. Did I miss something to drop the replication?
