Well, gentlemen I had a better idea....change the the default from linux to windows. Too bad I can't remember how to do that. You used to able to do it when installing linux, but I haven't seen that in quite awhile. Maybe one of you can help.....I am using grub 2.

It all depends on your setup and where grub is written to. If you remove the partition with grub on it then you can't get in at all. Of you remove a partition then it could make grub unusable because grub uses original partition numbering. Ie. Second will become first etc. and grub won't be able to load what you want because it can't locate it.
We need more information to answer accurately.
