GTD Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Here in The Nedderlands, I'm working with people in different countries rolling out some IT business systems and have sent out a spreadsheet to ask them to translate the fields in some reports we are writing. So we give them a spreadsheet and ask them to put the translated word in the next column. Bless the Hungarians, they overtyped the English with their translations. So how on earth am I meant to know what the English was? Do you think if I send it back, they'll type it back into English for me? 😬 Most other languages we could have had a bash, but Jelenlegi alkalmazott vezetőjének teljes neve Folyamat kezdetének ideje: Negyedév Felhasználói megjegyzés don't mean a lot to me!
