Now MemoQ is giving me the message "Index was outside the bounds of the array" when I try to update from bilingual review.

Hello everyone

I'm a new user of MemoQ, and so far updating from bilingual review has always worked for me, until today. Now MemoQ is giving me the message "Index was outside the bounds of the array" when I try to update from bilingual review. I tried re-exporting the file and updating the new version, and I tried creating a View and exporting/importing from that View, but it doesn't work. What can I do to the bilingual RTF file to make MemoQ accept it? I have used bilingual review on this computer and for this client in the past.

Thanks
Samuel

Good luck!

I was able to deliver by exporting as Trados DOC/RTF, then retranslating that file against my TM (since I did the actual translation in WFC), and then importing it. It imported about 180 of the 200 segments, so the rest of the segments I had to copy/paste manually (there was an error message about the source text having changed on those missing segments, but that made no sense, because I did not change the source text).
