Painter X - opened painter today after a hiatus and the paint and brush palettes were gone.
Trying to get them back via the windows dropdown didn't work. Any suggestions?

That is wierd. What Op Sys and computer?

I somehow lost my Sargent brush(s). No others, just Sargent and ended up reinstalling Painter.

Vista on a Gateway. Doesn't seem to be other problems with Painter or CS3 or anything. ???

Pressing "Tab" key doesn't help, does it?

"Tab" has worked in the past for temporary loss of palettes, but not this time. When I switch on the palettes from the window dropdown menu it shows "hide" telling me that the palettes are "show".
Guess I'm going to have to un/reinstall later in the week.
