How to Open a Termbase

If you already have default termbases selected in the Options dialog box or termbases selected in your Project Settings, they are automatically opened when you open a document for translation.

To open a termbase in the Editor during translation:

1.     Click Project Termbase Settings in the Term Recognition window. The Termbases page is automatically displayed in the Project Settings dialog box.

2.     Click Add. The Select Termbases dialog box is displayed.

3.     To select a termbase, do one of the following:

·         If you want to use a termbase stored locally in a file, click Browse and select a local termbase.

·         If you want to use a remote termbase stored on a server, click Log in to connect to the MultiTerm Server. The list of termbases on the server is displayed in the Select Termbases dialog box. Select the check box next to the termbase name that you want add to the project.

5.             Click OK to close the Select Termbases dialog box and to add the termbases to the project.
