No, it is not in the deletem items folder - I looked there. It just
disappeared. What I want to know is why is the program not set up to ask you
if you want to delete the whole folder?! Then, after it is gone, it is
really gone. There is no un-delete, un-do or restore. I have looked. Of
course I can type the names all in there again, but I think it is terrible
programming! Thanks for trying to help. I figured it was a lost cause but
thought I'd ask.

Check your deleted items folder - if it is not there, then check your backup and restore from there. Otherwise, you are out of luck. Since you probably created the DL from existing contacts, you can most likely recreate it without a problem.
