Post title: Another method - LIveDocs
Hi -
There is another way to accomplish the same thing, and in some cases it may be preferable.
Open the bilingual file in LiveDocs. This gives you two options:
1. Create a new TM as suggested earlier in this thread. Then select the document and execute "Export to TM...".
2. You can also use the LIveDocs with or without your existing TM, and you will know what comes from TM and what comes from LiveDocs by observing the icon in the Translations pane.
This nice thing about option 2 is that you don't mess up your existing TM, and you can easily jump to the original document by right clicking on the icon and selecing "Show document". I use this all the time, and that last feature is a big plus. When the translation doesn't make sense, I check the document and can see the entire context. You can't do that with TM.
Cheers!
George
