If I am a Colombian Citizen with a multivisit visa, and I don't have the actual visa because it is attached to an expired visa which is forgotten in the U.S. -
What are the chances of re-entering USA? Is the visa information in the computer or is it useless without the physical stamp?

Is this a B2? And how does one forget an expired visa? Unless it was not attached to your passport or you actually left the US without your passport.
Of course, I am not a lawyer.

The Expired Passport contained the valid visa, forgotten in a desk in USA and the Current Passport is in my possession in Bogota.
It Is a B2. I'm hoping the valid visa is in my "electronic footprint" with TSA/immigration?
or am I stuck / delayed with getting a temporary visa to re-enter ?

Did you get your new Colombian passport while in the US? Otherwise it suggests you left without your passport? How is that legal?
In any case if you had a B2 in an expired passport, it is still valid (I came to the US with two passports, one expired but has my US visa). I was just lazy and did not transfer it, but there is no problem doing so. You just might have to explain your passport-in-the-US situation.
