Microsoft Excel File Translation With Formulas and Data Intact
Spreadsheets mix translatable text with formulas, references, and numeric data that must never be touched. BeTranslated extracts only the translatable content from your XLSX files, translates it by a native specialist, and delivers a workbook with every formula and data relationship exactly as it was.
Spreadsheet Translation
Translating XLSX Files Without Breaking Your Data
Excel workbooks are more than text. Cell values, named ranges, data validation messages, form controls, column headers, dropdown lists, and chart titles all need translation, while cell formulas, number formats, and data ranges must remain unchanged. A translation workflow that treats an Excel file like a plain text document will corrupt your spreadsheet.
BeTranslated uses a segmentation approach that identifies and isolates translatable strings while locking formulas, references, and numeric values against modification. Translators work on the text content only. The delivered XLSX file retains your original workbook structure, sheet names, named ranges, and all formula logic.
What We Handle
.xlsx Translation: Key Capabilities
Formula Protection
All cell formulas, VBA macros, and named range references are locked before translation begins. Not a single character of your calculation logic is touched.
Multi-Sheet Workbooks
All sheets in a workbook are translated in a single project pass. Inter-sheet references and cross-sheet data validation remain functional after translation.
Header and Label Translation
Column headers, row labels, dropdown list values, form control text, and chart titles are all translated to give users a fully localized interface.
Comments and Notes
Cell comments and notes are translated alongside the main cell content. Helpful annotations are preserved so your spreadsheet remains useful in the target language.
