Hi again,
If some of your segments are not translated in Fluency 2011, an empty segment is displayed as , search for segment in Target View and you'll should be able to find which are not translated.
I don't know how complex your Excel file is, one simple solution is to use Find and enter nothing, finds all of the blank cells.
Selecting the target column, if A is your source column and B your target column, may also make your search easier, just click on the header of column B to select it and then Crtl+F will only search column B.
Last tip if you want to fix your Fluency file, press Ctrl+Shift+J and enter the segment #.

Thank you so much for your help. I went on translating all afternoon and only now did I try your "tricks" or rather: tips!
the simple solution was exactly that: simple and the solution.
It turned out that these segments were only half translated because there were measures in inches and feet etc. And I only used the measures in cms, after erasing the inches and feet.
I will know not to worry now and just accept it.
Many thanks and have a nice Sunday ! It is early here in Mexico where I am for three months!
