Just open this document in Word Jan 20, 2007

and accept all changes.
You cannot work on a document with changes.
To do so, activate the "track change mode" and use the command "accept all changes" from the corresponding tool bar.
Should you not be able to find how to do so, just ask Word for help.

Regards
Jerzy

Hi Jerzy and thank you for your answer,

This is an issue in the DOC file where it is mistakenly marked with Track Changes that have been resolved.

To allow this file to be converted to TTX you need to adapt the Word_1_0_0_0.xml file found in the TT folder of your Trados Installation folder. To do so please open the file in a text editor and

Change the following line from

Default

to

Ignore

Please be sure to change exactly as above and then save the file. Once you restart TagEditor or Translators Workbench tracked changes will now be ignored and you will be able to convert the file to TTX.

Copying the content of the file into a new file Jan 20, 2007

and when selecting, leaving at least the last paragraph mark unselected.
Another possibility: opening with OpenOffice and saving back again as MS Word.
Sorry, no other ideas.

In memoriam
And just for the benefit of previous SDLX version users Jan 21, 2007

This situation can be different.

If you create an itd and are confronted with an abominably high degree of format painting (see also http://www.proz.com/topic/26345 ), then check the source document for track changes. If there are any, accept all of them and recreate the itd.

Saves a lot of grief.

Thank you Fabrice Feb 26, 2007

I have just tried the method you mentioned (changing "Default' to "Ignore"). It worked for me.

(I use SDL Trados 7.5)
