2. In MultiTerm, go to the File menu and choose Import. The Import Options dialog box will appear. Click OK.
3. The Open dialog box will appear.... See more

MTiX vs. MultiTerm 5.x Apr 16, 2004

Hi Spiros,
Looks like you're trying to apply the import instructions for MultiTerm 5.x to MultiTerm iX...

MTiX has its own import wizard called MultiTerm Convert, which supports tab-delimited text or CSV files, as well as Excel spreadsheets.

HTH, Ralf
