Good morning,
I hope there is someone out there who can help me. This morning, after starting up my computer, my Trados bar isn't showing up in Word anymore. I have started Trados Synergy and Trados workbench, and when I open up a document that I translated using trados yesterday, the bar just isn't there.
Can anybody please help????
Deadlines are pressing!
Thanks a lot!
Edith.

Check if the Trados toolbar is enabled from View>Toolbar, if not, enable it. You can also see if the template is installed: Tools>Templates and Add-ins. If it's not there, I'd close Word, better yet, restart your computer and see it that helps.

Just an idea - try searching past forums (such as this one) for info on the TRADOSX.dot template. It may be in the wrong place.
Best,
Amy

hello,
sometimes it helps to delete Normal.dotx (Word closed). It will regenerated afterwards.
Can someone move all this CAT tool questions to another forum. Trados is not a translation ressource.
Regards
Noe
I think it's dotx in Word 2007.

TOPIC STARTER | Thanks, but still no change | May 14, 2008 |
Thanks for your quick answers.
So far, no luck. I have already de-installed and installed Trados again, no change.
I can't find the location of Normal.dot, and in Word 2007, I can't even find View - Toolbars.......

If I remember well, they're not compatible Word 2007 - Trados.

Note: Please make sure that you move the Trados8.dotm (not .dot) file over for Office 2007 templates.
Please also delete the normal.dot file from the following folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\*Your Name*\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates
I hope this helps.

TOPIC STARTER | Can't find path | May 14, 2008 |
Hi Gareth,
I am using Vista, and I would like to try this. But in the Templates under the program files, there are two files named Trados8.dotm.
And secondly, I can't find the path that I should copy to. I can find it up to C:\Users\*My name*\.... After that, there are folders called: Graphics, Desktop, Files, Downloads, Favorites, etc.
Can you please help me a bit further?
thanks,
Edith.

Hello Edith,
Thank you for the reply. The most likely reason that you cannot see all the folders is because you need to make hidden files and folders visible. Please follow these instructions to do this:
1. Open the Start Menu -> Control Panel -> Folder Options -> Select the "View" tab
2. Please select the option to "Show Hidden Files and Folders" from the list, Press "OK". You should now be able to see the AppData folder from the file paths I sent you prev... See more Hello Edith,

Please make sure that you move over the Trados8.dotm file where file size is 387/388kb and will most likely have a ! mark in the logo (because it's Macro enabled).
I hope this helps.
Many Thanks,

Hello Gareth,
Thanks for your explanation.
Unfortunately, moving the Trados8m.dot did not change anything.
Do you have any other suggestions, by any change?
Thanks a lot so far!
Edith

Hello Edith,
Thank you for your response. Did you manage to delete normal.dotm?
Please also try the following to make sure Word 2007 is allowing the Trados8.dotm template:
1. Open Word 2007 and go to the Office Menu
2. Select "Word Options"
3. Select "Add-Ins" from the left hand navigation pane
4. Please make sure that Trados8.dotm is under the "Active Application Add-Ins" list.

You may also want to go to the Trust Center and make sure that macros are enabled, or at least "Disabled with Notification" so you can authorise them accordingly.
I hope this helps.
Many Thanks,

TOPIC STARTER | It's not active | May 15, 2008 |
Hello Gareth,
Again, thanks a lot for everything you are doing.
I didn't have a normal.dot, so there was nothing to delete. Might that be affecting this?
The Trados8.dotm is not under the Active Application Add-INs, but under the 'Disabled application add-ins' (don't know if it is Disabled in English, I have a Dutch version, but it is in the last part...).
How can I move this?
Thanks! Edith

Here is one way to fix the problem:
1. Make sure Word and Trados are closed (check in Task Manager for Winword.exe and Trados)
2. Remove the trados8.dot and/or trados8.dotm from C:\Users\*Your Name*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP.
3. Remove Word Normal.dot and Normal.dotm from C:\Users\*Your Name*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates.
4. Start up Word as usual. You'll notice the Trados toolbar is not to be found.

4. Start up Word as usual. You'll notice the Trados toolbar is not to be found.
5. Copy the trados8.dotm from C:\Program Files\SDL International\T2007\TT\Templates (or wherever you saved your Trados application when you installed it) to C:\Users\*Your Name*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates.
6. In Word 2007, click on "Word Options" (button at bottom of the screen after you click on the Office icon in the upper left-hand corner of the application).
7. Select "Add-Ins" from the list on the left.
8. Select "Word Add-Ins" from the Manage drop-down list and press "Go..."
9. Under the "Templates" tab, press "Add..." in the "Global templates and add-ins" section. Go to the location where you copied trados8.dotm (C:\Users\*Your Name*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates) and select it to add it to the list of "Checked items are currently loaded". Make sure the box next to it is checked, then press "OK" to exit.
10. The Trados toolbar now appears in Word. When you reopen Word at a future date, just reattach the add-in by checking the box under add-ins again (no need to copy files over again).
