Closed bug by mistake; can it be reopened?

    I'm evaluating workbench.

    I clicked on New Bug to enter a new bug.  I submitted the bug, then clicked on View Bugs.  I clicked on the bug title, which took me to a view of the bug description and other details.

    Without *carefully* thinking about what I was doing, I clicked on Close in the menu under Actions to the right of the bug description thinking this would close the window (not enough sleep, I guess).  When I viewed the bug list again, the bug was gone, the light dawned, and I realized I had *closed the bug.*

    Is there a way to reopen the bug, i.e., to recover from a mistaken closure?

    Thanks

    Mike

      Mike,

      You can go the the view bugs screen and select "closed" as status type. You should see your closed bug now. You can edit it and change its status back to open (or whatever it was).

      Aha!  Thanks, Hans; I now have my bug back (there's sort of a perverse pleasure in that).
