I think I'm using MemoQ 2013 (I have it at work, so I don't have access here at home).

I want add multiple TMs to a project and then import .tmx TM files into those files. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, so I suspect I'm missing something.

I guess my initial basic question is, how do I control which TM in my MemoQ file receives the contents of the imported .tmx file?

Thanks for your help! ▲ Collapse

One of the TMs is always the Primary TM, which is where the TMX would normally be imported to. However, I believe you can simply select any TM and click on Import from TMX and that TM will be populated.

I cannot help you with the second question, though I presume that if the language is not the same then there may be some compatibility issues.
