Re: Deleting Oracle8 on NT(cleaning Oracle8)

Raghu,

By shutting down the database and stopping the listener, you can delete all the data files and directories without a problem. This will remove your database.

If you want to remove Oracle8 software, that will require purging the registry. I don't think I have ever successfully removed ALL Oracle software from NT.
