disable publishing and distribution error

Ok, which database are you creating sysmergepublications and
sysmergesubscriptions in ?
I've created sysmergesubscriptions in distribution , master , msdb ...
I still receive an error when I run
use master
exec sp_dropdistributor @.no_checks = 1
go
I receive :
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSmergepublishdb, Line 103
Invalid object name 'dbo.sysmergesubscriptions'.

Publication database. Check which databases are published for merge
replication and put it there.

|||My database is no longer being published for replication because I used
exec sp_replicationdboption 'databasename','merge publish',false
Nonetheless, I added a dbo.sysmergesubscriptions table to this database and
ran
use master
exec sp_dropdistributor @.no_checks = 1
go
but I still receive the error :
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSmergepublishdb, Line 103
Invalid object name 'dbo.sysmergesubscriptions'.
Could it be because I need to add dbo.sysmergesubscriptions as a system
object ? How do I do this ?

|||these are the lines around 103
if not exists (select * from dbo.sysmergesubscriptions
where UPPER(subscriber_server) =
UPPER(publishingservername()) and db_name = db_name() and subid <> pubid)
begin
select @.ignore_merge_metadata = 1
end
It is complaining about the database you are running the command in. Is the
table there? Does it have the owner dbo?
