Old version of WF would do the trick Feb 5, 2010

Hola!

Thanks for the tip. Feb 5, 2010

Does it mean I'd have to install an older version of MS Office than the one I'm currently using (2007)?

Wordfast can not open new TMW files Feb 17, 2010

WordFast (3.35x) was able open and convert Trados 5.5 tmw files, but there are changes in the TMW format, so it is not possible to open Trados 2007 tmw file with Wordfast.
