How can I unlink an Armature from a mesh?

Hi,

I realised I had not connected some object pieces to an existing character, after I had began setting up a skeleton animation. For me to get the mesh together, I need to unlink the armature from the mesh, just how do I do that?

I read the Game development book, nothing on it, as Blender for Dummies, nothing on that either. I at least had a quick skim read. It is pretty basic on animation, and the usual parent. I may be wrong.

Clear all rig controls, Alt- G, R, and S (Pose mode). Select the mesh(s) ALT P, Clear Parent. You may need to ALT P, Clear Parent Keep Transforms if you have unapplied locations, rotations and scales on the mesh(s).

Good luck!
