To delete a report
Select the Delete Report command from the File menu. The Delete Report dialog, shown in the following image, is then displayed.
Select the report that you want to delete from the Report list box or enter the name in the Report name text box.
Filter the list of report names in the Reports list box in one or both of the following ways.
To display only those reports that contain that text in their report description, enter text in the Text contains text box. For example, only those reports that mention Pay in their description are displayed if you enter Pay, providing a refined selection list.
To display only those reports modified during a specified period, select a last modified period from the Last modified list box. For example, only those reports that were modified in the week prior to the current week are displayed if you select Last Week. The default value of any time means that reports modified in any period are displayed.
To further refine the display of reports, perform one of the following actions.
To display details relating to the last modified dates of the displayed reports, click the Display Details button. (This is the default display.)
To display the reports as a simple list, click the Display as List button.

You can recover a report after it has been deleted while the current session of the JADE Report Writer Designer application is still running (that is, before you have exited from the application by using the Exit command from the File menu).
A temporary copy of the deleted report is made and given the name of the report with a suffix of before delete. This temporary copy is displayed in the Open Report dialog and you can restore it by opening it and then saving it.
