One of my clients have just asked for my memory for a specific end-client. I have not kept a specific memory for this, but have used my general memory for this particular topic. Luckily, I have kept uncleaned copies of my last project with them and would now like to extract the memory in order to send them just that memory. I have forgotten how to do this. Would somebody be able to help me?

You should be up and running within 20 min using fusion and generating the segmented Terminology file is size dependent, but may be it can be accomplished with in a run-up, generate, export all - in 30 min. Good luck

No problem Nov 9, 2004

Just create a new TM in Trados Workbench with the appropriate language pair. Than run a cleanup of your files and be sure to check "Update TM". That should do the job.

Thank you very much for your help. I chose Daniel's solution as it was straight-forward, but I am sure that Fusion would work well too.
