Jezebel is correct if it is the hard drive that has crashed, but if it is
only Word that has crashed any open documents that are capable of being
recovered will be recovered automatically. Others are lost. Saved documents
are not affected, but you may experience problems attributable to orphan
temp files - see http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm
