Need tag to exclude words from translation in Docx file.

You could come up with a certain style that you apply to the untranslatable segments in Word, and respect that style in the Document Translator code. There is no such provision implemented right now.
Probably easier is to use a dictionary on the Hub (http://hub.microsofttranslator.com) and then use your custom system from Document Translator.

Thanks for your replies Chris,

The dictionary will work fine for phrases and words, but not for longer texts.

For example - with documentation there are blocks of code in the DOCX which
should not be translated, while one might want to have the surrounding instructions
translated to the target language. Using a dictionary in such instances is not practical.

By what I'm seeing here though HTML is the only place where simple a simple tag
such as <code> Some text here </code> is not recognized.

With DOCX being XML it would seem somehow such tags could be inserted at least in theory.

Any comments and/or ideas appreciated.
