Hi,

I have a client who sends me little projects every now and then. I do have a TM and project created for this client. But, he would like me to send him the TM for just that particular project every time that I've completed it and not the entire TM. Is this doable? If so, can you please let me know how?

Thank you!

Hi Samuel,

I use version 3.4.4 and you just open up another issue that I have with Wordfast. For whatever reason, I am not able to update to the new version. I even tried to uninstall it and I cannot uninstall as well. My IT friend looked at it and is very puzzled as well.

I want to try it on another computer and see if I have the same problem.

But, I do hope you can help me with my TM question.

Thanks!

As far as I understand your question. The steps are as follows:

1. Create a blank TM for each project.
2. Open each translated TXML file of that project.
3. Use the commit all segment comment (Ctrl+Alt+End).
4. Send the TM to your client.

Thank you for your response.
I was hoping not to have to create a blank TM for each project for this client. I have all of his projects lumped together and suddenly, he just wants the TM of that 1 particular file. He said that he is not interested in the entire TM for all his projects, but only that 1 particular file. Sigh...

Thanks!
