A target Word file translated with Studio 2017 cannot be opened.

Question

A Word file converted into a sdlxliff file and back to a word document with Studio 2017 cannot be opened with an error message saying
"It is impossible to open the file. Some problems have been found in its content."
The detailed message says "Error cannot be identified. Location : /word/document.xml, line: 2, column: 29405."

Although I have already tried the measures suggested in the responses to the past question in this place: "Impossible to open a target Word .docx file,"
I couldn't solve the problem. As the last attempt, I opened and repaired the source word file, saved it, and tried to convert the repaired word file (source) into a sdlxliff file for translation with studio 2017, then, an error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" appeared and the process stopped.
The details of this error is as shown in the attached image.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

I would really appreciate it if somone could help me.

B. regards & thanks in advance

Hi Satomi Inaba 
 Unknown said: I use word 2007 and I 'm not sure if that's why, but I couldn't find the other DOCX file type in word options. 
 I was referring to the filetype options in Studio, not Word. If you look in your File -> Optoins you will see this: 
 
 You have two DOCX filetypes and one DOC. So try reversing the order of the DOCX so that when you open the file for translation as a new project it is prepared with a different DOCX filetype. You can do this by highlighting the top one in the list and clicking on the move up and move down commands on the bottom right of your screen in this pane: 
 
 If that doesn't work, seeing as you are clearly having some problems can you share the following files with me? 
 - original source DOCX file 
 - fully translated sdlxliff file 
 If this is ok you can email them to me at pfilkin@sdl.com 
 Thank you

Hi Satomi Inaba , 
 
First try repeating the process but use the other DOCX filetype. In the options you'll see there are two, so just swap the order (move the lower one so it's above the one that's on top now). 
 
Or, try removing the table of contents in the source file and repeat the process. This was mentioned in another thread this evening so worth a try.
