![]() ![]() Trados8.dotm works ok with Trados7, Office 2010 32 bits and Windows 10 (it will not work with a 64 bits-version of Word) - After many hours of googling and reading all these posts here and elsewhere, I found that it is still possible to work with Trados 7 :-). so perhaps try the ProZ forums, or TW_Users as there are many experienced users who regularly upgrade their computers but still manage to work with the older tools! Reply Delete Having said that there is bound to be someone who figures out a way to make it work, there always is. I guess the solution if you want to continue having access to a Trados toolbar in Word solution is keep your old computer when you buy a new one or don't upgrade Windows/Office or keep a machine running the older Windows and older Office versions (or even install a Virtual machine for this). so don't use the Trados toolbar in Word at all anymore. The solution, if you have to use Word bilinguals would be to create them in Workbench and then translate them in Studio. but I really have no idea about Office 2013. so in Office 2010 32-bit edition it all works fine. Certainly we won't do any more work on it to ensure it works with the latest versions of Windows and Office. ![]() Trados 2007 is already not supported anymore, and the Suite version (that is sold with 2011 as an option) will be the next to go. If you already have a 32-bit version installed and it doesn't work then it may be that Office 2013 is a step too far for a product this old. This is a problem for many Word plugins that have not been made 64-bit compatible and Microsoft themselves will recommend you use the 32-bit version of Office (on a 64-bit system, so this is fine) if you have any old toolbar plugins that you need to use regularly. the only thing I'd add is that if you have installed the 64-bit version of Word as well then this would immediately cause you a problem. Depending on the virtual machine, the installation might go without a hitch, but in case it doesn't, I believe that SDL support should be able to help you (SDL support is available free for installation and licensing problems).Ī (perhaps) simpler alternative would be to use TagEditor (even without the preview) for customers that really insist on old-style Trados, and to use SDL Trados Studio (a much better program) for all other work. 3) Install in the virtual machine Trados 2007. If you are on Windows 8, or in any case if XP Mode is no longer available, procure a copy of Windows XP, then install it on a virtual machine on your computer (there are several different programs that permit you to install a virtual machine - but you have to provide the operating system to install on the virtual machine yourself).Ģ) Once you have your virtual machine up and running (Windows XP mode, or another virtual machine, install in the virtual machine your old copy of MS Office (up to Office 2010 - but Office 2003 would do perfectly). I haven't tried to use Trados 2007 with MS Word 2013, but I'm not surprised if Trados 2007 doesn't work with Office 2013: after all it's a program that was last updated about six years ago, and if it relies on features of MS Word that have been changed in the last version, then it won't work any longer.Īs far as i know, Studio works without problems with MS Word 2013 files.ġ) If you have a computer with Windows 7, install XP Mode (I believe it is still available from Microsoft). I've updated this post, adding the above detailed instructions, since the link to SDL's article was not working properly. You should now see, and be able to use, Trados's Workbench or MultiTerm from Microsoft Word 2010.
