Software includes MS Vista Home Premium, SDL Trados 2007 Professional, SDL Multi Term 2007 and MS Office 2003, all Russians. I create local TB, select it in window " Open/Close Termbase”, put a mark, OK. Then I open MS Word – MultiTerm – Select Termbase but no just created TB. There is only Local Sample. Any solutions?

Green button with "+" Mar 16, 2009

Hello, fellow member of the Watson clan.

At the top of the Select termbases pane (Multiterm menu in Word), you will see a line of buttons (Selected termbases).

Click on the green button with the "+" on it and you should be able to add your new termbase.

All the best to Sherlock,

Giles

No Result? Mar 16, 2009

Hi again.

When you say "no result", do you mean "nothing at all happened" or did the "Local termbases" dialog box open with nothing in it?

You could try clicking on the sample termbase to highlight it and then clicking on the green button to open the "Local termbases" dialog box. If you can see your new termbase in Multiterm, you should be able to see it in Word, whether or not you have selected it in Multiterm.

I have XP so there may be OS-related differences but it doesn't sound like it.

Yes.
In this case, combined with the User Account Control feature in Vista.

Hi Grzegorz,

Do you have a specific link for your standard response (my Google returns a lot of references for "Gryc Multiterm 2007 idiots" and even for "Gryc Multiterm idiots 2007", but not the site/link itself).
Thanks!
