I need to uninstall Instance2 on the server keeping 1 and 3

Here is the scenario.
Installed 3 instances of SQL Server 2005 on a single server (windows
2003 standard) say Instance1, instance2 and Instance3.
I need to uninstall Instance2 on the server keeping 1 and 3 .
Any tools to achieve this or any scripts to write ...
Karan LobanaInstallation and uninstallation is done at the instance level. So you should be able to uninstall
only instance 2, and then install it again.

The tool is Add\Remove programs. Select SQL Server 2005 and you will
be prompted to remove only the instance(s) desired. In earlier
version, each instance is listed seperatley in Add\Remove programs.
