In a fit of hubris, I accepted a rather large Tstream assignment. Tstream isn't a great CAT-tool, so I was planning on using Trados 2017 or MemoQ 2015 for it. The XML-file is easily extracted from the LWO source, and can be loaded into Trados/MemoQ.

However, there's a problem: Instead of source and target rows like in Tstream, all the text ends up as source segments when I load the XML-file in Trados or MemoQ, so I can't translate using Trados/MemoQ.

Any tips?
