OpenXML Filter multiple language support?

[Former user]

Hello,

We were able to handle multiple target languages for CSV files. See CSV's filter cofigurations here.

Now, we have the same requirement for Excel files. Rainbow has multiple target language selection option for CSV Filter, but I don't see any for OpenXML. Is it possible to have a filter configuration that would do the same as the CSV config in the link above?

Please also refer to the attachment below for a sample file. We would like to parse translations in different languages into different columns, if possible. If not, we would probably convert XLSX into CSV, but that might be a lot work for files with multiple sheets, so I just wanted to ask you guys, if there is a way to include 'multiple target language and their columns' information into filter configurations for OpenXMLFilter.

Thanks,

Unfortunately, a large amount of code would need to be written inside the OpenXML filter to make this possible.

Well then, I guess we would rather convert to CSV or TSV. Thanks for the reply.

Hi @Chase Tingley ,

Is there any update on this? I don’t see anything on changelogs but wanted to check still.

To provide a very belated update, we partially support this now. It’s possible to configure the filter to map specific columns in the source XLSX to different columns in the target. However, we still do not support true “multilingual” filtering where a single configuration can describe sending the same source column to different target columns depending on target language.
