Question

I am getting this error when I try to generate my finalized file and I cannot find the source of the error nor where in the file the error is occurring. 
 I have run all the Verify routines and all the tags seem to be OK. 
 Does anybody have a clue about I can go about resolving this issue?

Hi Traci, 
 
To troubleshoot files try these articles: 
 
How to troubleshoot issues with generating your target file in SDL Trados Studio : http://goo.gl/gW6X6 
 
How to troubleshoot problematic files : http://goo.gl/Mlodc 
 
More often, the solution to these problems is resolved like this: 
 
- Open the source file again using the "Translate Single Document" process 
- Save it to create a single file project 
- Try to save target now before you do anything. 
- If it works go onto the next step, but if it doesn't then you need to consider the more advanced trouble shooting steps in the KB article 
- Pretranslate the file using your Translation Memory 
- Save the target file 
 
If none of that helps, and if you are allowed to share the file you can send me the fully translated sdlxliff and the original source file and I'll happily take a look.
