Hello All,

I've just downloaded the SDL Trados. I have started the New to SDL Trados tutorial, however I find myself immediately stuck.

The tutorial says to make sure that I'm using Multiterm 7, however when I start the translator's Workbench and select the menu item Term recognition options, the only option available is "Multiterm 5 (Trados 5)".

Please note this is a brand new SDL Trados installation and I've never owned Trados before.

Thanks ... See more

two versions Mar 15, 2006

Multiterm shipped with SDL Trados 2006 is version 7.1.0.361 (Build 361) and when you open Translator's Workbench there should be two options: Multiterm 5 and Multiterm 7

what about the menu? Mar 15, 2006

There should be a drop-down menu, when you click on the arrow you should be able to see both options.

Drop down Mar 15, 2006

I have checked the drop down menu in the first place, but as I wrote in my question, the only option available from the drop down menu is Multiterm 5.

Re: Mar 15, 2006

Well, when you open Translator's Workbench, the recent TM is opened. You may close that file and then look in the term recognition options. If this is not the case, then you should wait for answers from experienced users

Have you installed MultiTerm 7? Mar 15, 2006

Hi Luca,
You need to install MultiTerm Desktop before you can activate it in Workbench. Have you downloaded and installed it?

Best regards,
Ralf

How do I do that? Mar 17, 2006

Hi

I am having the same problem - only MultiTerm5 appears on the dropdown menu. I have not yet installed Multiterm 7 - could you explain how I go about doing that? I am not at all familiar with TRADOS and the website seems a bit confusing to me...

Thanks a lot!

Download MT7 from the same location where you downloaded Workbench Mar 17, 2006

Hi again,

I am having the same problem - only MultiTerm5 appears on the dropdown menu. I have not yet installed Multiterm 7 -

...which answers my question in the new topic you posted...

could you explain how I go about doing that? I am not at all familiar with TRADOS and the website seems a bit confusing to me...

The installation procedure is identical to Workbench (in fact, there's nothing Trados-specific involved...):
- Download the installer file (go to the Product List in your Customer Center);
- extract the download file into a separate folder;
- run Setup.exe.

Best regards,
Ralf
