When I want to make a new entry into my glossary the message run-time error 75, path/file access error occures. I looked at the microsoft support page, but since I am not a computer expert, I don't know how to solve that problem. Did anzone have the same problem? Thanks.

| New entry in glossary | Sep 1, 2007 |
I find that I have to press T twice.
Thus, when adding a new term to a glossary I have to type:
Ctrl+Alt + T(two times= only the T!)

Try turning off UAC (User Account Control) in the Windows Control Panel. This Vista feature may block Wordfast or some of its actions.

| Different problem... | Aug 16, 2009 |
I did not want to start a new topic since my problem refers to Windows Vista, Word 2007 and Wordfast. It seems like since about two days [no changes performed by me on the computer, no new programs installed] my Word "hangs up" whenever I try to do anything with Wordfast [opening it and clicking on "Select TM" already causes it]. I reinstalled Wordfast but no change. My Wordfast version is 5.53 and licensed [purchased].
Thank you in advance!

You might try the solutions in the "Bugs and Crashes" and "Wordfast refuses to start" sections under Troubleshooting in the manual (pp. 106–107).

Hi Anne-Marie,
which version of MS Word do you use together with Windows 7? AFAIAK, one reason why both Wordfast and Trados offered a new version of their software (Pro for Wordfast, Studio for Trados) is that MS Word versions superior to 2007 do not come with VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) - thus making macro-based applications such as the "old" (up to 2007) Trados and Wordfast Classic toolbars useless.

Hi Anne-Marie
From Word 2007, click the office button, then go to "word options" button at the very bottom right corner. Click on "add-ins" (on my French version it's called compléments) and find "Word add-ins" under the drop-down menu then click "go". You should then see a check list of macros (maybe yours will be empty). From here you should "browse" to the location where you saved wordfast.dot then select it and c... See more Hi Anne-Marie

Read the instructions about the security settings (they are somewhere in the main word options menu - can't remember exactly) and then you should ready for your trial! ▲ Collapse

Hi Lori,
thank you very much indeed! You were a great help.
So far so good; I am still struggling to calm down the security settings; I wonder why they have to change the location of functions for every version in Word ...
By Monday I should be able to go through the first document ... ! Just kidding -)
Enjoy your weekend!
