object reference not set to an instance of an object - verification

Maria Rigli

I am using Trados 2019. Every time I choose the option ''Translate single file'' when starting a translation, I cannot confirm the segments. This function is gray.

    Are you sure you have got an active segment?  Try this:

    1. click into the target translation of your work so it becomes active
    2. press the Ctrl+Enter key combination

    Does that work?

    Drop me an email, pfilkin@sdl.com, and perhaps we can take a quick look at this over Skype.  It may be easier to see what the problem is this way.

    Thanks for your email.  The problem you mention in the email is not what you have explained here.  Please can you provide the error stack for the message you receive as this might shed some light on the problem:

    Error dialog box in Trados Studio with message 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' and an 'OK' button. A yellow arrow points to the 'Knowledge Base Community' link with instructions to click, save the file, and attach it to a reply.

    Two things worth trying I think.

    1. make sure the TMs in your default template are all valid and accessible.
    2. rename your default template:
      c:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\Studio 2019\Project Templates\Default.sdltpl
