After getting rid of my problem with the other file I was translating, I just received a new document and tried to open it with Tag Editor, as usual. The document seems to open (scroll bar and preview bar are shown) but if I click on anything on the screen, the program crashes and closes. No error message is shown.
I run Trados 2007, Office 2007 and Windows Vista. Never had a problem opening files like this one I'm having now.

On a second try, I clicked on the "open segment" button and the segment to be translated appeared on TW, while my Tag Editor screen was blank and frozen. Below is the error description:
Problem signature:

So, what to do on this case? I've already converted the .doc to .rtf and even to .docx, no avail. The file opens normally on Word and other .doc files also open normally on Tag Editor, except for this one.
Thank you! ▲ Collapse

1) try to export it from Word to any non-MS format, say, to MAC
2) try to save it as Word-95
3) try to save it as HTML
and then open in TE
BTW, is it French/Belgian? There might be some diacritics in headers/footers/footnotes/remarks...

| Change some settings in the Filters | Jan 2, 2010 |
Go to SDL International Program Group, open the Trados group and go to Filters, chose Filer settings.
Under Word 200-2003 chose "Display formatting and font mapping" and deselect both options.
Press Save, then Exit.
In Word, chose the "Open" file function (CTRL+O). Point to the file in question and select "Open and repair" (instead of plain Open). Save the file.

When you now start the TagEditor, adjust the window of TagEditor approximately to 2/3 of the width of your screen. Try now to open the file. This might already help.
If not, install the free Microsoft Office 2007 compatibility pack. Open the file in Word. Save as Word 2007. Close Word. Reopen the file in Word 2007 format. Save again as Word 2003. Check now.
If still no success, try to open the file in OpenOffice and save there as Word.
Try then again. ▲ Collapse

TOPIC STARTER | Problem solved! | Jan 3, 2010 |
Thank you again, Jerzy, you are truly the TM Wizard! I did as you suggested, and it worked, although now I have to work with a 2/3 screen size - if I expand it, Tag Editor will crash again.
The "Open and Repair" on Word found a problematic text box.
Before your reply, I did as Sergei suggested: saved the file as HTML. Although the file opened normally, the text was completely truncated and almost unintelligible.
Thank you again!

| The mystery of software | Jan 3, 2010 |
The fact TagEditor is not working properly on certain documents (not only Word) if set to the full width of the screen is really astonishing.
I encountered text viewing problems in TagEditor with text where multiple tabs were used - a quite often missused feature by our customers, so I tried to adjust the width of the program window to get the text shown in a legible way. And then TagEditor did also not crash. So I put 1 and 1 together and started to work wth TE set o just 2/3 of the scree...

I even reported that to Trados guys, but they do not use high resolution screens with the font size set to 120 dpi and extra large fonts in Windows obviously and did not encounter similar problems. But this behaviour has been confirmed by some other friends here on ProZ ▲ Collapse

| Might strongly depend on your used screen resolution | Jan 3, 2010 |
I use very high resolution with extra large fonts - software developer do not do use such.
In Studio for example some parts come garbled on my screen, but no one else seems to have this problem. But people at SDL are aware of this in the meantime.

I had experienced this problem before -at first I had no idea what causes this problems but after a while I noticed that TE crashes once I increase the size of the window. Still it's rather a surprising "feature"
