Hello,

Would anyone know whether there is any possibiity to batch edit several .sdltm TMs at once - in the same maner as one can edit several bilingual files using the Batch Find and Replace application?

Many thanks

Batch Edit function in Trados Studio 2009 Jul 7, 2011

In Translation Memories, select File > Batch Edit. In the Batch Edit dialog box, click Add button and choose the desired action; there are four actions available. I have never used this function, but I think it can be useful. Good luck!

Hello Gilberto,
Thank you. This is the feature I use indeed, but this only allows editing 1 TM at a time.
What I would like is to be able to process several TMs at the same time.

Oooops! Jul 7, 2011

I'm sorry! Searching Transtionzone website, I've seen that the only alternative is to merge all TMs you want do edit. I don't know if the link works, but there we go: http://kb.sdl.com/display/2/index.aspx?tab=opt3

Thank you:)
Well, that is what I suspected... it looks like it's not possible (yet?) to batch edit several separate TMs!

For your information, since you mentioned that you never used the batch edit feature, it's a great feature, easy to use and efficient.

Many thanks!
