Imported docx Word documents. Export of "clean" translated files works perfectly.
Export of "Trados format bilingual files" does not. The usual window pops up for you to change the name of the bilingual document about to be created - all well and good.

Click "Save" to continue the process and then (and it took me a while to find this!) a second "Save As...." window pops up BEHIND memoQ.
Having shifted memoQ to the edge of the screen before starting, I can actually save this file too. (Before I discovered it, I just thought memoQ was hanging indefinitely - I only discovered this second "save as" window because I was trying to restart the computer.)
This second file appears to be an auto-recovery tmp file, in fact, judging from a) the name starting with tmpxxx, b) the default directory and c) when I open the first-requested bilingual file, it suggests this second file as an autorecovery option in the usual narrow panel on the left.
However, Windows will not let me open it in the usual double-click way unless I close memoQ first. If I open Word with blank document, select Open and then select the file, it works.
I've checked my Word options and the "always take a backup on save" option is NOT selected.
Anyway, if it was a general system option fault of that kind, I would expect it to behave the same way when exporting the "clean" files.
Any thoughts?
I can work round it as long as I remember to shift memoQ away from the centre of the screen, but it's a bit annoying.
Thanks! ▲ Collapse

I haven't had this particular problem, although I have been using MemoQ for about 5 years now.
But with any of this sort of problem I would suggest contacting support at [email protected]. A support engineer will usually respond quite quickly.

I suspected it could be an idiosyncrasy of my installation rather than a general memoQ bug.
Not least because I subsequently noticed spurious "Save As..." popping up in Wordfast Classic as well, along with Word document saves crashing if I saved with Wordfast open (not with it closed).<... See more I suspected it could be an idiosyncrasy of my installation rather than a general memoQ bug.

and as my new machine is an Acer, I though I was onto something. So I deleted a bunch of the bloatware that came with the laptop (abDocs, abFiles, other related stuff with similar names which seems to relate to this synchronisation feature I don't need) and lo, memoQ no longer objects to exporting a bilingual file.
@John - thanks for the tip, I know they Kilgray respond well, and in fact seemed to be monitoring this forum when I had a question last week, so I thought this method might reach a wider audience of people who might have had the same problem, PLUS Kilgray support as an added bonus ▲ Collapse
