Hi Andres Celis , 
 That's very quick and easy: 
 1) You create a new termbase, based on your current TB's definition: 
 
 You have to give it a friendy name: 
 
 Then just next, next, finish. 
 Now you have an empty termbase with the structure you need to fill in your existing data. 
 Then you go to "Termbase Management" in MultiTerm, select "Import" for your new termbase and the "default import definition" 
 
 Later you have to define an excusion file, next, next, finish. Then MT imports your current data into your new termbase. 
 If you have given your new termbase the same name as your old one, you can zip up your old one and place the new one in the same location so that you don't accidentally update the old database.
