Hello to all.
I am currently translating the Index of a software. The source file is in html format, I use Trados Freelance 5.5 and after nearly each sentence Word shuts down.
What can I do? This is costing me too much time.

Is it a Table of Contents? If that is the case, you shouldn´t translate it. Once you finish translating the document you reload it, and that's it (you will see that the translations of the titles are updated in the TOC).

Otherwise, I would reccommend you to try using TagEditor.

Cheers!

Use TagEditor for HTML Jul 6, 2005

Exactly...

...I wouldn't want to use Word on an HTML file.

Best, Ralf
