Hello!

I bought a new comp and had to re-install Trados, among other things.

I'm working on my first file since the installation and I ran into the following problem: THE SOURCE TEXT IS NOT SHOWING.

But if I open the segment it shows up with no problem.

Does anybody have any idea what's going on?

Thanks!
Silvina

Change Word Options to show hidden texts. Mar 8, 2006

I suppose you working on MS Word.

1. Go to menu Tools > Options
2. Click on Views tab, Under "Formatting marks", select "Hidden text"

Good luck,

Agree, with one comment Mar 8, 2006

Truc Tran is spot on - hidden text has been discussed regularly in the past.

One slight change:

1. Go to menu Tools > Options
2. Click on Views tab, Under "Formatting marks", select "Hidden text"

I would recommend to select All, as this will allow you to toggle the display of hidden text using the Show/Hide button in Word. (See this recent discussion.)

Best, Ralf
