resume the suspended background job

Hi,

I was running a job in background and because of some immediate work to be done on my machine, I stopped the background job. The real problem comes when I try to restart the same job in the background. To stop I used
stop PID

and to resume the same I use
bg PID

when I do this the system says "bg: No such job". Even the job PID is there with stat 'T'. The job has been started from one terminal and has been stopped in another terminal but now I want to restart with some other terminal and it does not work with the PID.

Does anyone come across this kind of problem. Please suggest the solution.

Best
Baloo
