Unable to either save as target content (doc. file) or to open saved target file (docx.)

Hi all,

I know this has been discussed before, but I still haven't managed to solve the problem. I received a docx file from a client, open it and saved it as a doc. file as I have been having problems opening saved docx. files. At the beginning the file in Trados would save fine as target, but then I started getting the error message:

"failed to save target content: An error occurred while converting back to Microsoft Word format: Position of field is/are changed across the paragrapgh [sic] or Field insertion is repeated".

I've run Verify and there are no errors, just warnings about some tags. When I check these tags, they all seem ok (to the point of copying and pasting them into the target segment and typing the translation in again.

I then uploaded the docx file, which I do not have any problems saving as a target, but can then not open. The following message appears:

"We are sorry, but it is not possible to open the file X because of a problem with the content. / XML parsing error".

I realised that in the settings Microsoft Word 2007-2016 had not been selected. So I selected it and tried again. Still no luck.

The client said this was the original file (docx) received by their client.

I have to deliver the file tomorrow (Friday( 9 am GMT so any quick help would be much appreciated as I still need to review it in Word tonight GMT time.

Thanks,

Mariana
