Hi there,

A client of mine asked me to translate a file. The thing is that I have to place my translation in the same file right after the English source text (cell by cell, since I have an Excel spreadsheet).

i do understand that I have to copy source segments text to target segments in Trado 2017, and then just type in the translation. On the other hand, Google Translate speeds the whole process up considerably. So, here is the question:

Is there any functionality that can help me both copy the course segment AND put MT of this very source segment next after it in the target text pane?

Thank you!
