Anton,

"Compare Documents encountered one or more fields with content longer than 750 characters. Word could not track changes for these fields."

This seems to happen when Word encounters too many changes, or what it thinks are too many. It's mentioned on their known bugs list (sorry, I don't have the link handy).

It's just not a very robust feature. A possible workaround is to break your two docs into several pieces and compare each separately. We've done this in the past when needed.
