Try running the corrupt doc fixes on the doc that causes the problem.
Eternal pagination is a sign of corruption, though I don't know where the
message about the specific page number would be coming from.

The first way to check for a corrupt document is to
copy the entire thing, *excluding* the last paragraph mark, into a new
document. That last paragraph mark holds a lot of information which can get
corrupted, and copying the text into a document with a fresh one keeps your
formatting, but can fix some glitches.

A paragraph mark is a ¶. Click on ¶ on the standard toolbar to show
nonprinting characters, including paragraph marks.

See this link for further info and other fixes:

I am using Word 2002 on Windows XP and am using the RD field to generate a
table of contents from 12 separate documents. After setting the RD fields
and inserting the table of contents field, the table of contents starts to
generate but then stops. At the bottom of the page, it says that "Word is
repaginating [document.doc], page __ 16." When I open that document, I do
not see anything unusual, such as a section break, on that page. Any
solutions?
