Which version has your tmx file? Is it valid? Are the language codes set properly? And on top of this: what kind of error message do you get?

Dear colleagues (Richard and Jerzy),

I am following this thread because I have a similar problem.

The PM responsible for compiling the master TM in the agency sent the weekly TMXs to be imported into Studio and Trados Workbench. The PM sent two separate TMXs as usual. I have both CAT tools and this is the first time it ever happens.

When importing the Trados Workbench TMX, the tool reads all the translation units and imports none. They are all declared “invalid”. I opened the Studio TMX and imported it as usual. Then I saved it as compatible with Trados 2007 but, when trying to import it, the same error occurs. I downloaded two different plug-ins (SDLTMExport_Install and SDLTmConvert_v226_Setup) to try to solve this problem, but so far I have not been successful.

I would be very grateful if you could give me any input.

Kind regards,

You should be able to import the same TMX in Studio AND Workbench, as WB is able to read (and create) tmx 1.4b. Studio, though, must have 1.4b, other versions will not work. You can use Okapi Olifant http://okapi.sourceforge.net/downloads.html to check the tmx and to save it in 1.4 format accepted by Studio and Workbench.

Thank you, Jerzy! I will try your suggestion and let you know if it solved my problem.
