    if autosave is turned on, yes.... look in your config options, and it will show
    you the directory. the files will be called xxxx.sv$ I believe, all you do is rename it .dwg and your in, at least up to your last save or autosave..

    Set autosave to every 5 or 10 minutes if you want a lot of safety....
