I have just installed Wordfast Classic 5.5 on my computer as a user of Windows Vista. I have received a message to say that the download was successful but when I open a Word document I cannot see any icon allowing me to access and start working with Wordfast.

Any help gratefully received.

Many thanks,
Sarah

Look under Add-Ins tab in the top toolbar Jul 29, 2009

If you open Word in Vista, you should see an Add-Ins tab in the top toolbar. Click on that and you should be able to see the Wordfast icon. Click on that and away you go...

Have you "installed" Wordfast? Jul 29, 2009

In order to use Wordfast you have to install in Microsoft Office (or Word if you have it as standalone).

When you downloaded Wordfast you received a file named 'Wordfast.dot'. Open this file in Words and follow the instructions.

I would recommend you to also download the manual (free of charge). It contains some very useful titbits and procedures besides all the more advanced programming.

Good Luck!

- click on additional components (7th one from the top)
- at the bottom it says something like "manage" and there is a drop down menu next to it - open up the drop down menu and select "additional components for Word"

Then you can add the wordfast.dot


It took me forever to find wordfast when I first got Vista
