	Same problem here.  I had a pathological MacWrite file (nroff'ed
	output saved as a one-paragraph document, about 25 pages long) that
	I couldn't get into Word 1.05 or Word 3.0 properly.  In this case,
	since it was pure text anyway, I just opened it with MacWrite, saved as
	ASCII text, and imported into Word (either version) with no problem.
