In SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, the Connect to Server dialog has
a combobox for "Server name" that remembers any servers I have ever
connected to.

Some of those servers no longer exist. Is there a way to remove
entries?

You can close SSMS, rename mru.dat (you'll need to search for this file, and
it may be hidden, I forget).

Caution! This will delete all your servers (you can't pick and choose).

Also note, this no longer works in SQL Server 2008 SSMS AFAICT.

The filename for SSMS 2008 is SqlStudio.bin. Equally unsupported (it
has worked for me, though).

Thanks to both of you, that worked fine.

Fortunately I only had a couple servers that I wanted to keep.

If you'd like to help contribute to fixing this behavior in a future
release, please vote on it (I filed a Connect item earlier today):
