Well, it took longer to decide, but it gave me the very same error message. How do I attach the file? BTW, thanks for telling the TW list about this forum, I for one was not even aware of it.

Hi Ruth,

I think you just linked to your file and didn't actually load it.  You need to load it up there first.  So first go into rich formatting when you reply:

Then use this option to load the file:

However, you can also email me the file if you don't want to share this publicly?  Just send it to pfilkin@sdl.com  I'm out for the day but can definitely have a look later on.

Hi Ruth,

As we discussed the problem was related to one or more of the fields in your termbase definition not working as expected.  So we resolved it by exporting only the languages and none of the fields, as these were all empty anyway.  To do this we used the Glossary Converter from the SDL AppStore as shown in the video below.  One thing I forgot to add to the video was how to make sure the fields were always displayed so you could "ignore them".  This option is not set by default:

Once you have this the process is straightforward and you can create your new termbase in one operation with this tool:
