how do I reteve importatnt deleted forms, if possible? My forms were saved in word pad, I deleted them thinking they were in a folder already. I desperetly want to retreve them.

Try a program called recuva. It is free, get it at the link below. Stop writing to the disk any more than necessary. Knowing the file extension of the forms may help narrow the search.
Did you immediately empty the recycle bin after deleting them?
