I receive the errow while trying to remove Sample DataBase

" The database alias "SAMPLE" already exists in either the local database directory or system database directory."

Pls tell me how to drop this database, (Pls be informed that I can not see it in Control Center to delete it)

Thank you

Do

db2 list db directory

and

db2 list db directory on C:\

IF the database appears in the second listing, do

db2 catalog database <dbname> on C:\

and then do a db2 drop database ....

BTW, did you DROP DATABASE command ? or was it a delete of the directories ?

Cheers
