I received a job in which the repetitions are locked. They do not appear in the statistics. The MemoQ file has 10,000 words. The source Word file itself has 15,000 words. I would like to verify that the locked repetitions are in face 5000 words. Where can I see the count of the locked repetitions?

Can't you just include/exclude the locked segments when you run the analysis and compare the figures?

That worked! Sep 10, 2021

Thanks, that solved my problem. The count is about 1000 words short of the Word count. Is that normal?

That's more than normal. There can be some difference depending on whether you use memoQ or Trados-like counting, but it shouldn't be that much.

Parts of the Word document could have been excluded when it was imported.
