Good evening,
I have started using Trados again after a few (happy) years of non-use, so I am a bit lost. Sorry if I ask a stupid question, but I have a translation that should be ready tomorrow around 3pm Dutch time and Im a bit in panic.

Good evening,
I have started using Trados again after a few (happy) years of non-use, so I am a bit lost. Sorry if I ask a stupid question, but I have a translation that should be ready tomorrow around 3pm Dutch time and Im a bit in panic.
I am using Trados 7 SDL (the latest version I just bought and download) and an older version of Multiterm (5.5). Now I got from the agency I work for a text file (*.txt) that seems to be an uncleaned translated file with words I could use in the new translation. It looks like that:

Workbench: File - Import Nov 25, 2007

Hi Cecile,
You shouldn't use TM code in the forums, as the pointed brackets are misinterpreted.

I am using Trados 7 SDL (the latest version I just bought and download) and an older version of Multiterm (5.5). Now I got from the agency I work for a text file (*.txt) that seems to be an uncleaned translated file with words I could use in the new translation.

You received an export file, which you can import into a new (or an existing) TM, but not in MultiTerm.

Regards,
Ralf
