Justin- Don't do it in MS Word... do it in Notepad. Otherwise, the new .doc file will have "extra" stuff invisibly inserted that the router won't like.
At least that's my understanding of it.... I've not actually done such myself.

I copied a running-config from a router and pasted it into a word doc so I could edit to to meet the specs I'll need for another router. That being said, if I take off the .doc extension which will make the file a "file" type could I then copy this file from a tftp server to the new router? This is something I'll have to get set up tommorow and I am just looking at what might be the quickest way to get the new router up.
