This can be caused by a few different things. For me, I've often found that a
misplaced comma or an odd quotation mark (one that isn't paired off, that is)
can cause it. The first thing I do to troubleshoot this problem is to select
the entire Word document except for the last paragraph mark, copy, and paste
into a new document. I delete the old .doc and .rtf files, save the new
document with the old document's filename, then save it also as .rtf. Then try
compiling again.
