Thank you very much in advance.

All you have to do is include certain \"instructions\" for MultiTerm to know how to import a txt file. You have to use the following basic structure (suppose that you are importing an English-Spanish glossary):

<ENGLISH>English term

<ESPAÑOL>Spanish term

**

<ENGLISH>English term

<ESPAÑOL>Spanish term

<ENGLISH>English term

<ESPAÑOL>Spanish term

And so on. Language tags are defined when creating a new Multiterm base (as Index fields), so you may use <SPANISH> instead of <ESPAÑOL>, for example. You can also include (and define) attribute fields such as Source or Client, in which case your txt should be:

**

<ENGLISH>English term

<ESPAÑOL>Spanish term

<SOURCE>Dictionary Xxx

<CLIENT>ABC Inc.

**



Just remember: field definitions and <Tags> should be the same for Multiterm to know where to put what, and each term group should be preceded by **



Hope it helps! Good luck,
