remove distribution database

[maswien]

I want clean all the replication configuration in my SQL Server, I succeeded in cleaning up replication
folder and deleted all the replication related agents. Only the distribution database I couldn't remove it from
the enterprise manager, can anybody tell me how to do it? Thanks

I manually removed the distribution database, then when I tried to using the replication wizard 'configure publishing, subscribing and distributing' to setup a new replication, I got error message like:

SQL Server Enterprise Manager couldn't complete this operation. Error 21769:[SQL-DMO] The passed ordinal is out of the specified collection.

It looks like something still not cleaned yet, any idea? Thanks

In above comment, 'manually' meant I remove it from sysdatabases table in master database. I know I didn't do it right, so that's why I got the error.
