Would anybody know how to unlock segments, without knowing the password? I need to review a batch of files, but the person who sent them to me forgot to give...
Hi Roberta -- Did you try unlocking with a blank password? Good luck! Esther ... __________________________________________________________ Lèche-vitrine ou...

thanks a lot, I will try that! Véronique ... From: pcondal To: sdlx@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, April 03, 2005 11:35 AM Subject: [SDLX] Re: Searching ITDs -...
I have received a translation order, but am unsure whether to risk using SDLX as I have not used it before. It is an Excel file where many of the cells are...
Hello, The window on the right is the Translation Memory window, it shows you what you have already translated. To insert the translation you want in the...
Thanks Véronique, I found that the fuzzy match is marked green in the window, not red, and there is no way of seeing what the differences are. I just get the...
You should definitely use it, the time you will save by using it you can spend it on reviewing the help or getting started! 1. Sorry, yes, fuzzies are green....
Thanks again, When I have completed the translation (or even before?) do I have to export it to get it back into Excel format? I've tried this as a test, and...
3. As Iris says, you can see your translation in Excel format by clicking the eye icon (or File / Preview Translation) you can then save this Excel file. No...
When you created your ITD file, SDLX should have created a second XLS with a "_xy" left of the extension, where "xy" is the abbreviation of your target ...
Hi Stefan, Thanks for that. I'm slightly puzzled. If the Excel file is created just like that, why are projects created and exported at all? I have only...
Projects are useful if you have many files. Personnaly I very rarely use them. I just right-click on the file to translate to convert it to ITD. I don't...
Hi, ... You don't need projects for translating a single Excel file. You only need them for translating large numbers of files with the same settings etc. So...
Hi Piotr, Your suspicins are unfounded. I don't need to do so at all other than to check, as somebody who is doing a first SDLX job, that the translation is...
Thanks for that detailed description, Tobias. I have followed it to the letter, and all would appear to be fine, except that the output file is huge. I...
... It is not. Your changes are saved in the SDLX file. You can press control+S as often as you want or you can set the "Automatic Save every" on the Tools - ...
Thanks, Piotr, but I must be doing something wrong to create such a vast file from just a few changed segments, yet I followed Tobias's instructions to the...
Ben, The Preview feature is meant to give you an "on-the-fly" view of how your current translations will look in the original format. If you close the preview,...
At the end, when your final translated XLS is ready, try saving it via "Save as..." rather than "Save". This might reduce the size considerably. HTH Stefan...
Hi Stefan, Just to clarify one thing. Since receiving Tobias's guidelines, I have not used the Translation Preview once, so we can rule that out as the ...
Hi, ... Do that. I really do NOT think that the file will continue to expand. You see, when SDLX creates the translated XLS document, it writes an entirely new...

With respect Tobias, the whole point is that it has not stayed at 800k. I have done about three saves and it is up from 450k to 1500k, and that is for just a...
Hi, ... Ah, OK, I missed that point, then. ... Please do so, given that it does not stay at 800k, it would be interesting to see wether saving in Excel fixes...
Hi Ben, don't know if this will help you, but when I translate Excel files with SDLX (like I'm doing right now ;-) ) I normally create a new Excel file ...
