Hi Jan,
On 25 September 2000 at 14:35:07 GMT -0400 (which was 19:35 where I
live) Jan Rifkinson wrote and made these points on the subject

That is what would happen *after* the Windows disk folders had been
lost/misplaced/deleted/emptied/moved/mangled/subverted. This is not
the cause, it's a symptom of another problem.
JR> There was nothing in the system recycle bin either.
That means either TB has lost track of where the data resides or the
data has been moved or the data has been deleted.

That makes all of this discussion academic. I'm not quite clear as to
why a fresh installation would be devoid of templates though. I shall
take your word for it <g>

There's no point in this now that you have re-installed TB.
