I'm not sure if this applies to your case, but the only cause I have seen
for that complaint is a TeX/LaTeX file with no line feeds.  My version of
TeX is running on an IBM/AT compatible under PCDOS 3.30.  TeX files downloaded
from Unix hosts frequently produce this error until I run them throughh
something which adds line feeds to all CRs in the file.

Hope this helps,
