Hello everyone,

I need to create an automatic step - preferably own task - that can be used in custom batch sequence. It should lock all repetitions in the file(s) excluding first occurrence. At this moment, I am doing this manually.

Is there a way to make this an automatic action?

Thanks for your suggestions.

Perhaps this can be done with Auto-Hotkey.

But I was hoping something like this can be done natively directly in Trados. Programming own task somehow? Recording a nice little macro? I never heard about these possibilities and still hope Trados have something hidden there for me. So if anyone else have other suggestions, please share.

(But keeping Auto-Hotkey in mind)
