I have just completed a 7,000 words-translation on Studio 2009, and when I try to save the target text, this error message appears: "An error occurred while converting fields back to Microsoft Word format" / This message does not correspond to a point in the document. Can anybody help please? Subject: Comment: The contents of this post will automatically be included in the ticket generated. Please add any additional comments or explanation (optional)
Rodion Shein ロシア連邦 Local time: 20:02 英語 から ロシア語 + ... Got no answer Nov 5, 2010 I asked SDL reps this very question when using SP1 and SP2. However, I failed to get any reasonable answer. MS documents with fields cannot be processed properly. Would be great, if SDL guys could resolve the issue in SP3. You might try converting TM to Trados 2007 format and "translate" it again in Workbench to bypass the segments with fields.

Fields are usually not a problem Nov 5, 2010 However your error message seems to tell you, that already the source document has been damaged. Could you please test, if you are able to open the untouched source and then immediately save it as target? If that works, the error is indeed in the translation. Did you run the tag verifier on the file? MS documents with fields cannot be processed properly. I cannot confirm that - to the contrary I can process all Word documents I try to. However, some repair before I start translating is sometimes necessary. Subject: Comment: The contents of this post will automatically be included in the ticket generated.

Can anybody help please? This is a very common error and is usually due to the fact that you have a segment with a tag that has not been transferred to the target segment. You'll very often find such tags in segments containing hyperlinks, such as URLs (e.g. www.company.com). Check your documents for such tags and make sure that they have all been transferred to the target segment.
