When looking at my home screen I accidently deleted the home screeen which showed me the active applications running in the background, can anyone tell me how I can restore this?

Sounds to me like you deleted a widget. Long-press on a home screen, choose Widgets from the popup menu, and see if there's one matching your description.

Try pressing and holding the HOME button (hardware button in the bottom row) - that should pop up a screen listing recently opened apps. I believe the Galaxy Tab's interface has been modified to include a TASK MANAGER button. Is that what you're looking for?

I think you are talking about the program monitor widget: long press anywhere on your home screen, choose Widgets and select the Program Monitor from the list.

To see applications running in the background, go to Menu -> Manage apps -> Running. I don't know what you mean by "active applications running in the background", though, because "active" means "running in the foreground" :P
