I am trying to get back a word 97 document which I accidently did not save. On the prompts I somehow clicked "no" and lots of work was lost. Is there any way I can recover it or undelete it at all?
Thanks

it's slim but - open up word and see if appears on the bottom of the file menu recent documents list. Failing that do a document search of your C drive for all temp docs search for something like ~*.* (temp files start with a ~. If word and windows were shut down properly then the doc would have been wiped I'm afraid !
