I also have this issue but only on one small file within a large project Jul 18, 2014

I have around 30,000 words and 2 small word files have shown this error message when I choose to prepare and then pretranslate files in the Batch tasks feature. I solved the problem in one of the files by saving it again with a slightly different name as recommended by someone on another thread, but the same trick isn't working with the second file.

I followed the steps to remove the 3 files in the AppData folder and have rebooted the computer, but still getting the error message when preparing and pretranslating this one file. The origin of the error is from "convert to translatable format"

What else can I do?

For me, solution 2 worked every time:
Solution 2:

In the case SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 will start, but as soon as you try to switch between the dialogs you get the error message Object reference not set to an instance of an object, please use the follow resolution:

Open SDL Trados Studio.
Click on SDL Trados Studio in the View menu.
Select Reset Window Layout.
Please confirm the reset of the window layout with a click on OK.

After these steps the message should no longer appear, but if this solution does not work please try Solution 1 before you try Solution 3 and 4.

I have suffered the same problem and found the solution Aug 15, 2016

Dear Sir,

I suffered the same problem. Pleased find below the solution I have followed:

1- Copy all text in excel cells into office word.
2- Translate word file (as table) into Trados
3 - Copy all word file translation after cleaning up into your excel file.

That is all!
It is so easy after an hour and half of confusion and worry.
