Hi
is anybody aware of a feature in WFP5 allowing to edit source (= perform S&R) for ALL source segments?
I know I can activate editing for one segment but that's of no use for me.
Why? Because I often get source texts in FR with figures having dots (.) instead of commas and WF (and other CATs) does not convert those figures correctly, and I'm speaking of a lot of figures. So being able to S&R dots with commas before starting the translation would be quite a time saver.

Couldn't you do the subsitution in the source document, before opening it in Wordfast? Or in the translated document? I must admit that I do miss that Pandora's Box feature of Wordfast Classic.

Of course, that's what I did so far, but the feature would come in handy. Other tools can do it, so...
