Hi,



I am working on the new version of a user guide, with a Trados TM from another translator.

The TM shows 100% from the other translator in green ok, but doesn\'t re-propose to me the translations I have done myself.

I am annoyed because the text is repetitive and I could gain hours.



Any idea?

Multiple 100% matches enabled? Dec 30, 2002

If you haven\'t changed anything, you won\'t see a change - but have you checked if the TM supports multiple 100% matches? (Check under the TM properties.)

You might be right Dec 30, 2002

In File/Properties, multiple translations says no.

Do you think that is the problem, and if yes how can I change that?

If it is the problem, you can only change this feature by creating a new TM and activating the check box in the set-up dialog. Then you have to export and import the translation memory you need. When a 100 % match occurs in your translation, you have the option of changing the match and adding a new translation unit (this \"adding\" is important, since otherwise you will change the translation and not save \"multiple translations\". When the sentence occurs again, you can scroll through the 100 % matches using the arrow buttons. The details are explained in the Trados help file.

Did you try to reorganise? Dec 31, 2002

Dear Arnaud,



The same has happened to me a few days ago!

But I got to solve the problem with a Reorganisation (File ---> Reorganise).



Just try it if you haven\'t tried it yet! Hope it works!



All the best for the New Year!
