Macro: Hide Target Language Paragraphs, Show New Source Language Paragraphs Thread poster: Hans Lenting
|
Sometimes you receive documents where the client has inserted new English paragraphs in your old German translation. With this macro you can hide the German paragraphs so that you can import only the English paragraphs in your CAT tool. Add your test words in the line strWords = strWords & "this,short". Adapt the languages to your needs. Before running this macro, you'll have to select all text and hide it. (For now, the macro only works in the main story.)
