Document structure error: Translated text length for Name "[file name]" is longer than the allowed 31 character. Please change the text and try again.

Now, I've tried changing the file name to something shorter to no avail (although the original name WAS NOT over 31 characters long.). I've tried saving the target text only within TagEditor, and I get the same error message.

What can I do?

Thanks!

Tab names in Excel cannot exceed 31 char. Sep 26, 2007

Hi,

I know this i a late answer and hopefully your problem is resolved by now but here's the solution just in case:

The 31 characters message does not concern the file name but the name of the tab in ecxel that cannot exceed 31 characters.

So you just have to open your ttx file in TagEditor, find the tab names and give them a translation no longer than 31 characters.

Cheers,
Tim
