Hi is there a way of clearing the server names from the management studio?

i found the below on the net but i do not have this file to delete?

“All you have to do is delete C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\90\Tools\Shell\mru.dat.”

what do you mean by "from management studio"?

Just Right Click on the server name->disconnect!

Do you mean your registered servers and/or the servers used in Object Explorer?

Clearing mru.dat will only clear the recently used connection settings like server name, user name, password etc. while connecting to SQL Server 2005. It won't delete the servers from Object Explorer.
