Hi,
I have to translate a CSV document but I don't remember how to do that on Trados Studio. When I open on Excel, everything is written on column A but there are a lot of tags etc. that are not to be translated.
When I open it on Studio, here is what I have:
Thank you for your help!
You have at least two problems to work in Excel:
To open the CSV correctly in Studio you need to specify which columns you want as source and target in the filetype settings. Currently it's taking the first two, and it's also extracting the header as translatable text which you might not want.

Thank you! I'm sorry I don't know how to have a BOM?

Currently it's taking the first two => all the text that needs to be translate is on the first column, there are nothing on the other ones. I don't want it to be source and target, just to translate the text, to replace it.

I doubt that!! The first column seems to contain exactly what you have shown in the source column f your screenshot. I don't think that's translatable text.
Looking at your file it seems more likely to be the seventh column, and the translated content looks as though it should be in the eighth. The reason I think you think everything is in the first column is because you simply opened the file in Excel and everything is in the first column!

A little light reading that should explain:
