Hello, I've sent a client a Word doc converted from a target file in Trados Studio 21. She gets a message telling her 'Word document can't be closed because it is referenced by a VBA project that is open' (I've translated the error message she received from French). Has anyone come across this? Is there anything I can do to fix this from my end? Message she receives:
This is a known Microsoft Word issue, not specific to Trados Studio, and it typically occurs when:
Given you sent the file to your customer after translating it with the VBA your client might be able to resolve it like this:
Close the VBA editor if open (Alt+F11), and then try closing the document again.
Check for other open documents that may be referencing the same VBA project.
Disable any macros:
File > Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Macro Settings > Disable all macros (with or without notification).
Try saving the file under a new name as this might break the reference.
Inspect the file properties:
File > Info > Check for Issues > Inspect Document.
Use the "Document Inspector" to remove hidden macros or references.
Maybe something there will help?
