> 1. Choose Database Disconnect. If you have more than one database connected, the Data Dictionary displays the Select Database to Disconnect dialog box.

> 2. Select the database you want to disconnect from the database selection list, then press RETURN. The Data Dictionary displays an alert box prompting you to verify the disconnect.

> 3. Choose Yes to disconnect the selected database.
