Use

General settings section:

· Tags must be formatted with the mqInternal style check box: When you turn this on, memoQ will look for parts formatted in the mqInternal style. Only those parts will be imported as formatting tags that are formatted in this style. This option is turned off by default.
· Update target segment even if source is different in imported file check box: When updating an existing document from a multi-column RTF table, memoQ can perform extra checks to make sure that no segment is destroyed by accident. Among those, memoQ can check if the source segment is the same in the memoQ document and in the RTF document. By ticking this check box, you can instruct memoQ to skip the segment if the source text is different from the content in memoQ. This option is turned off by default.
