ahh I screwed up over here and accidentally erase data component in the Detail Component Manager. 


Anyone know how to get it back? 

It is the one highlighted.

Can you copy the database from the install CD?

I don't know.  Copy it using Explorer I would assume. 
I will give it try.  I was planning on copying it from a user's machine.  I just wondering on how to do it so Autocad would see it.  The Keynotes are still there since they are a separate data base.  I will give it a try.

On a side note, does anyone use their ADT Detail Components?

We don't, though I wish we would.  We only use walls, door, windows. (plan view no 3d) and we use multi view block (somewhat worthless if you aske me, but I just work here.

We do the opposite.  No smart walls, doors for us.  only Ceiling Grids.  About half of us use the detail components for our building sections and details.  saves a lot time.  heck just the GWB and plywood tools are major time savers.  I would suggest you start there.  You know what they say "Once you DCM you wont go back" 

Good News,
Luckly I have MS Access.  I exported the deleted table from a user's machine and imported into affected database.
Bad News,
ADT does not see the new table.  Bummer
