Searching for duplicate terms

Search for duplicate terms before merging or deleting termbase entries. Note that some duplicate terms may be required because they are homonyms representing different concepts.

Procedure

  1. Go to File > Open Termbase from the Ribbon.
    • Server termbases: Select Servers to set up the available servers, and Login to connect to a specific server. Select for each termbase you want to open, and select OK.
    • Local termbases: Select Browse to open a *.sdltb file. Select for each termbase you want to open, and select OK.
  2. Select the Terms view, and then select the Termbases tab. The default termbase has the icon.
  3. Select the termbase to make it the default termbase.
  4. Select Home > Advanced Search > Search for Duplicate Terms.
  5. When you find duplicate terms, you can delete or merge the entries.
