I don't know what ticket this is under, but have you got a workaround in the meantime?  The most common problem relates to this attribute:

o-tmf="some text in here"

If you delete this attribute altogether the import often just works.

Dear Paul,

thank you for answering.

I don t know under what ticket it is. I was just told that the technical team was working on it since you couldn t solve the problem. 

I do work on trados 2017 now. I import the files there and open the document up in trados 2022.

I was just worreid as I have updated mu trados 2017 to 2022 so my trados 2017 will disappear if a buy a new computer or my computer crashes and then I am not able to work with trados 2022 since none of the files in the TMX are imported and I get no suggestions at all.

My internal case number: CRQ-31197

Kind regards

Jenny

Thanks Jenny Grela , by ticket I actually needed CRQ-31197, so that was helpful.

The work isn't planned in yet so I don't think we can provide a fix date, but the suggested solution was related to what I said.  If you delete the o-tmf="some text in here" attribute then you'll be able to import your TMX.

I do recall this being a problem in even older versions of Studio, it all depended on what value the o-tmf used.

So simple fix for you for now, and I'm sure the dev team will get around to this and include in a future version once it makes sense to plan it in with other work.

Hi Paul,

First of all I dont know how what you mean by deleting o tmf some text in here.

My TMX contain sometimes more then 60 files if I shall do this for every file it would take a lot of time

I never had this problem with trados 2017.

Do you think a solution will be found for trados 2022 and that it will be possible to fix this problem with an update to trados 2022 in the near future?

Kind regards

Jenny

If you open a tmx i a text editor you will something like this:

Yours may not be exactly the same, but your problem files for importing probably contain the highlighted o-tmf attribute.  The text inside the quotes might be different, it just depends on where the tmx came from.

So by deleting it I mean change this:

<header creationtool="SDL Language Platform" creationtoolversion="8.0" o-tmf="SDL TM8 Format" datatype="xml"

to this:

<header creationtool="SDL Language Platform" creationtoolversion="8.0" datatype="xml"

The o-tmf attribute isn't needed for the import, but some content causes a problem.  So just remove it by deleting it.

You mean you have 60 different TMX files?  No problem!  If you use something like Notepad++ as your text editor.  It's free and is available here:

https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/

Then you can delete this from all the files in one go.  Here's a short video to explain how, and the regular expression I used was this:

o-tmf="[^"]+"

Hi Paul, thank you,

Shall I deleta after the files have been read?

Do you think the problem will be solved this year?

Kind regards

Hi Paul,

no I have one TMX file containing 60 files sometimes.

I ll have a look at your video. I hope I will understand I am not a technical person at all so all of this is quite new. But I ll try.

Kind regards
