    I'd do each step in order as a precaution.

    Are you managing your transaction log with regular backups? If so, why do you say the log file is going to continue growing?

    Thank you very much for your suggestion. I tried in the dev environment.

    This the message I get.

    Msg 5020, Level 16, State 1, Line 3

    The primary data or log file cannot be removed from a database

    It seems like the primary file group cannot be dropped. Any suggestions.
