I need to create a cell-based TMs from pretranslated bilingual Excel files.
To make sure the segmentation corresponds exactly to the file structure I'd like to create projects using the bilingual Excel file type, as this file type does NOT do paragraph-based segmentation, but goes cell by cell. Of course I could convert Excel to TMX quite easily, but in this case it does not really work, as the Excel files are not fully pretranslated, there are empty target cells. Such segments would be simply ignored in Studio, when updating the TM.
Unfortunately, neither S2021 nor S2022 will work with bilingual Excel. This is the error message I get:
I also attach the Excel file here. What is wrong with it?
