You can recover a template 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 template is made and given the name of the template, with a suffix of before delete. This temporary copy is displayed in the Open Template dialog and you can restore it by opening it and then saving it.
