Unfortunately the newest Word for Mac 2008 doesn't work with Wordfast. ▲ Collapse

Mac and word 08 Feb 3, 2008

Dear Alex,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I have the Word 08 for Mac so it would seem I'm in a bit of trouble!! I will contact wordfast and see if they have a solution.
Thanks again,
Bev

Have you installed Windows on your Mac? Feb 4, 2008

Hi Bevo,

I occasionally use Wordfast on my Macs, but I do so (mostly) on the Windows side of the house. You may wish to check the proz.com discussions on using Windows (Trados, DejaVu) with Parallels or Boot Camp on the Intel-based Macs.

I find that it works better in this environment anyway.

Stefan

Wordfast and Windows for mac 08 Feb 4, 2008

Dear Stefan,
Many thanks for your reply. If i can find my windows installation disc I will try same otherwise I'm told it will be another 2/300 euro outlay!!! The problem seems to be the removal of macros and Visual Basic from Windows 08 for mac.
Regards and thanks,
Bev
