Removing an MTS Component from a Package

[This product will work only on Windows NT 4.0 versions and earlier. For Windows 2000 and later, see COM+ (Component Services).]

You can use Microsoft Transaction Server Explorer to remove components from a package. The impact of deleting a component depends on how the component was added to the MTS run-time environment. If you installed the component, deleting the component completely removes registry information from both the MTS run-time environment and your computer. If you imported the component, the component will be removed from the MTS run-time environment, but will remain registered on the deployment computer as a COM (Component Object Model) component. You must then manually remove the COM component registry entries and component files from your deployment computer.

To remove a component from a package

1. In the right pane of the Explorer, select the package that contains the component you want to remove.
2. Open the Components folder.
3. Select the component you want to remove.
4. On the Action menu, click Delete. You can also select the component and either right-click and select Delete from the right-click menu, or select the Delete button on the MTS toolbar.
5. Click Yes in the dialog box that appears.
