Not sure, but I know that the Microsoft Word that I use has an autosave feature which saves the documnet you are working on every X minutes on its own. So if you where working on it for 6hours it should have saved at some point. Good luck either way.

Wasn't in MS Word. Even so, autosave doesn't matter when computer lab flips doomswitch with 10 second warning. User profile data isn't permanently written to disk until I log off. Balls.
