When trying to save a Word 2003 document my computer came up with an error
message saying that it could not find the disk. I tried to exit the screen
but it would not let me, but eventually I managed to close the programme down.
When I then re-opened the file most of my work has now been replaced by
small boxes (see example from the document below).

There was not autorecover option available and I have lost quite a lot of
work - does anyone know if it can be recovered in any way?

Many thanks,

It seems likely that you may have had the document open from some form of
removable media.
