Hi there

Rolf
Thanks so much for your insights,
I copied Colum A & B and saved them separately in MS Word as .Doc then exported them through Winalign to MY TM in SDL trados 2011

At the very beginning I exported the file as "Unicode", but failed to open....they must be something wrong the Arabic, English has no problems

Thanks again for your cooperation

Windows & MS Office work (internally) with UTF-16. So, if you export as "Unicode", you'll get UTF-16. If you export as "UTF-8" you'll get UTF-8.

If this doesn't work, export as UTF-8, open the file using Notepad and save it as UTF-16.

Use the Save As command in Excel and save the document in Unicode coding.
