Is there an easy way to combine several sdltm files?

Question

I have several sdltm files from various projects that I would like to combine into a monster TM for the same company. 
 I know I can export each one to a tmx file and then import all the tmx files into the monster TM, but that's a lot of clicks and time-consuming. 
 Is there an easier way to do it? More automated, maybe? 
 
 Thanks in advance, 
 Dorte

Hi guys, 
 Don't forget you can just upgrade them all in one go and you're left with one SDLTM containing them all.

 There is an Open Exchange app called "SDLTMExport", which may be helpful, see here 
 On the other hand, as you mention that the TMs come from various projects, the ideal approach would be to take the SDLXLIFFs from these projects (provided you have them) and import them. The nice thing is that you can store all files in one folder and import them all in one go. This would even have the advantage that you get more information (fields) into your TM than with the TMX.

Hi Dorte, 
 "World English" is just one of the wonderful new flavours of English we get with W10. I never realised until W10 what a talented linguist I was... over 60 flavours of English! 
 But the problem with language flavours in Studio for your TMs is simple... just use AnyTM when you add them. It's part of Studio 2015 but this article written back when it was an openexchange app will explain all:
