I think i've deleted a project from the server?

I didn't think you could delete projects from the server and I just didn't
want anyone to be able to open a completed or cancelled project so selected
the project and clicked delete from the 'open projects from the server' box
in MSP03 but now whenI go into the Web Access, Admin, Manage Security, Select
Category, and serch for the project where it used to be it isn't there
anymore :-( so I guess you can delete projects from the server and that's how
you do it?? is it gone for good?

Pretty dump question but help appreciated

By default, Project Server 2003 allows anyone who uses Project Professional
2003 to delete their own enterprise projects in the Open dialog. This is
one of the permissions that we recommend be disabled. You now know why. To
disable this permission, complete the following steps:

1. Log into PWA with administrator permissions.
2. Click the Admin menu and then click Server Configuration.
3. In the permissions grid, scroll to the Admin section and set the Delete
Project permission to Deny.
4. Click the Save Changes button.

By completing the above set of steps, you will prevent everyone (including
you) from accidentally or intentionally deleting a project in the Open
dialog in Project Professional 2003. Since you are the Project Server
administrator, you can delete projects using the Clean Up Project Server
Database page in PWA. Beyond this, yes, the project is gone. To restore
the project from a SQL Server backup, refer to the following FAQ:

Hope this helps.
