I use this with a Keyboard Maestro macro that runs whenever MSWord “deactivates” (in Keyboard Maestro terms). Updated with comments from http://apple.stackexchange.com/a/132171/9226
Raw
autosave-msword.scpt
on hasDocument()
tell application "Microsoft Word"
every document is not missing value
end tell
end hasDocument
tell application "Microsoft Word"
if it is running and my hasDocument() then
save active document
end if
end tell
