Two solutions Oct 23, 2013

You can use the compare-function in Word in order to check what the reviewer has changed.
If there are only a few changes in the target column you could adjust your translation straight in Studio editor. If there are many changes you can copy the edited target columns into the original export file, remove the old target column and try to update with this file.

Thank you, Since there are many changes, I used the later solution and it turned out EXCELLENT——cut the problematic column and use it replace the original column-smart way!
