The Administration tool can only be used to delete databases that were created using the Administration tool. Databases created using the database software must be deleted with the Enterprise Manager tools of the database software.

To delete a database using the Administration tool, right-click the required database node and select Delete from the context-menu.

When deleting a database, the database is checked to ensure there are no resident applications. If applications are still present, the database cannot be deleted. If there are no applications, but tables still exist, the database is detached and then deleted.
