Cannot remove replication

Hi,
I have a box running SQL 7 with replication. I restored one of the
replicated database to another SQL 7 with no replication. A developer needed
to test an upgrade of an application (MS Great Plains) using that database.
The application states that the tables are part of a replication. As far as I
know, when you restore a replicated DB to another server (with no
replication), the replication infomation is lost. I have also ran
sp_removedbreplication successfully but we still have the same problem.
Any ideas?

I saw it work in a cartoon once so I am pretty sure I can do it.The tables in question are still marked for replication.
I think you may need to manually update some of the system tables to remove
the marking for replication on the object.
I don't have my poster here at the office, so i couldn't tell you which
tables specically to look at.
I would guess sysobjects.xtype....

also exists on SQL 7.0, please try using
sp_MSunmarkreplinfo which takes a tablename as a parameter

the distributor and publisher. In EM from Tools...Replication...configure
publishing subscribers and distributors. Make sure there are no selections
(uncheck all boxes).
