I created a glossary in Excel, with 2 columns, and then I converted it to .txt

So, this glossary is for PT-ES translations. The problem is that when I activate this glossary in Microsoft Word, through Wordfast, it doesn't work properly. It recognizes some terms, but the majority of them are ignored and I don't understand why.

You did use the tab key between the source text term and the target text term, didn't you?

Yes, I did. I really don't understand.
I've tried using "*" at the end of the entries or "|" between words and nothing happens.

Not sure about Spanish, but I had much fuss regarding Russian/Ukrainian garbled glossaries in wrong formats.
Could you check the encoding?

The format is in txt unicode. Is it normal to have this kind of trouble?

In my language pair (with Cyrillic) I often had problems with corrupted formats, wrong codepages and encoding (mostly re-converting Win-XXXX, UTF-8/16, Uni via NotePad++ or SynWrite).
However, could you share with other users how you have coped with the problem?

I simply reinstalled the program... I don't know if it had something to do with the version or not, but now it is working just fine.
