Hello guys,

I am getting desperate with a situation here: I need to do an English-Spanish glossary for my Masters, and I need to add the links I am getting the Target Term from. For that, I made a whole new cell called "TT from" in Excel. However, when converting the file into MultiTerm, this cell never ever appears. What can be happening? How can I solve it?

Cheers

Thanks Mar 7, 2015

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. At the end, I don't why, it was that I needed to do it again on Excel.

Thanks

... I created a quick video on this, mainly because this was a good example of where Multiterm Convert can be more useful than the Glossary Converter!
