Hi,

I started using memoQ last week. I completed my first project with it. I did the export file as memoQ bilingual document, and thought that everything was fine.

Then, I doubled clicked on the file to open it. memoQ opened, but there was no file, only a blank space where my file should have been. I deleted memoQ and installed it again, but I still get the same problem. The version I have is 4.5.69

Thank you for your help!

Why a memoQ bilingual? Mar 29, 2011

Does your customer also use memoQ?

If you customer uses Trados, you probably want to use the "Trados-compatible bilingual file" option, which will let you open the file in Word.

Hi Tomás,

The client uses memoQ too. So he said to export the file as a memoQ bilingual file.

I finally managed to open the file. It has to be imported into memoQ.

Cheers,

Liz
