Pendrive partition deleted

Pendrive was plugged into back of computer when an XP setup was run.
Kids saw that small partition and thought it was part of the hard disk and wanted to zap that partition to make one big partition.
Now I cannot figure out how to partition it. When I tried a Win98 fdisk it does not show up.
Anybody know how to save this $30 drive from the trash can?
Thanks,
Alan

Plug it into an XP box and try disk management.
