Undeleting Google Docs and Spreadsheets

Dorothy sent me the following question:

I use Google Docs,Spreadsheets and Presentations. From time to time i delete documents from my documents list. Is there a way to recover those documents i have deleted?

Thanks for asking Dorothy. Like in GMail, documents (including spreadsheets, presentations and forms) you delete in Google Docs are actually kept in a specific bin named Trash.

In order to recover those to your Google Docs home, you’ll need to navigate to the Trash folder, check the box at the left side of your document name and click on Undelete. Recovered documents are automatically transferred to your Google docs list. Be aware that you can multi select several documents and recover them all at once.
