Could anyone help me do the following things:
1. merge various TMs into one definitive TM
2. clean up the new TM in order to delete repeated identical segments and to replace the older ones with the newest one.
I've looked at the manual and although it mentions the MERGE capability, I can't find this option on the wordfast toolbar or window.
Thanks for any help.

Moving this thread to Wordfast Support forum Sep 18, 2005

Hopefully some knowledgeable WF user will share the tricks. I had the same problem just 2 days ago and all what I could do is the re-install WF 4, use the Merge function and switch back to WF 5. I'm not sure though what about double entries - I think they are still there.

Clean up Sep 18, 2005

Then is there any way to clean up afterwards so that all the duplicated TMs can be replaced by the newest.
