Word XP froze, unsaved work lost

I was typing my school paper in Word XP and regrettably forgot to ever save
it. Well, when I went to print it, the whole program froze up on the print
screen. Now it's just sitting there, waiting for me to give it permission to
end the program. Which I really don't want to do, because I can see some of
my hard work just taunting me in the background. Is there anything at all
that I can do to reliably retrieve the document? Keeping in mind I never
actually saved a copy of it. Any one? Desperate here...

It sounds as though it is a goner. If you can see some of your work on
screen, you can always take a screenshot (Alt+PrtScn) and save it before
closing Word. But it sounds a luckless situation to me.
