Lost work on MS Word - please help!!!

Hi,

I think I have just lost 22 pages of work that I've typed on ms word. It is a crucial report which has to be handed in tomorrow so I'm desperately hoping someone can help...

The report had already been started and was emailed to me to finish it. I opened the word doc via my hotmail account (it was sent attached to an email) and began editing it. As I said I typed an extra 22 pages and kept clicking on the save icon as I progressed. Once complete I closed down word (it didn't ask if I wanted to save my work so I assumed this had been done when I clicked the save icon). I then went to email the completed report to the relevant recipiant but it was nowhere to be found on my computer. I have searched every single file on my hard drive and it is not there - it's like it never existed. I can't believe it has just disappeared without a trace. This work has taken me hours and I don't have time to do it again. Is there any way I can find my work???

Anyone who can help would have my eternal gratitude.

Thanks in advance,
Ian
