If this is the result of a compilation failure then there are error messages
generated by the system. TeXnic Center will help you. In the lower part of
the screen is a window with lots of messages. Go there and scroll back until
you see a thick fat red dot with diagonal cross.

Given the following minimal document:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
Hello World!
\blurb
\end{document}

The following output will be visible (you'll have to scroll back, though):

! Undefined control sequence.
1.4 \blurb

[1] (test.aux) )
(see the transcript file for additional information)

Clearly, \blurb was never defined. Either you misspellt it, or you copied
the command from somewhere while forgetting to declare the package it
belongs to, or it waits to be defined.

PS:
If you want to show the word \blurb in your text while preventing its
execution, you'd say \verb'\blurb'.
