In the past I often used the excellent Capybara Comment View plugin to export comments to Excel for review by the client. I am now working on a document with nearly 100 comments I need to send to the client and I find to my horror that the plugin is not compatible with Trados 2021 (or so it seems). Does anyone know another way to export the comments to Excel (or Word)? The idea of extracting/copying/pasting them "by hand" fills me with dread  ...

| Try "Export for Bilingual Review" option in Batch Task | Aug 15, 2022 |
I can use the "Export for Bilingual Review" option in Batch Task to extract a bilingual Word file with comments in Trados 2017, guess it's the same in Trados 2022. You can find Batch Task in the ribbon in Files or Editor pane, or when you right click on the needed file(s) in Files pane.

Open the files in CafeTran. From the Project menu choose Export, Bilingual with notes.

Thanks to you both for your replies, but perhaps I didn't explain myself clearly in my original question. I know you can export the text with the comments, but what I need to do is to export JUST the comments together with their context (segment no. source segment, destination segment, comment) into an Excel file to send to the client WITHOUT the text... exactly as with the excellent and sorely-missed Comment View plugin.

Just filter on segments with notes before you export to a docx table.

If you can't download it from the RWS Appstore site, you have to setup a Private Appstore with your version. Even if you can [download plugins from the Appstore], you'd still better set up it because it allows you to download and install plugins that are currently not available from the Appstore. ▲ Collapse

Thanks Stepan, I've installed the plugin and it seems to be pretty well what I need.

| Update: don't tick the 'Exclude segment categories' | Aug 15, 2022 |
I assumed that ticking them all will export comments only, but I was wrong with my assumption. You have to export all, unless you know it for sure that you can exclude some types of segments, and then filter the output Excel file by the column D contents (Comments text).

*The output Excel file may be protected. If the filtering feature is not active for you, go to the Review tab and click 'Unprotect Sheet'.
