Converting a Translation Manger 1 DB to a TranMan 2 DB

You cannot directly convert a Tranman 1 database to a Tranman
2 database. You must export the source and translated
strings and import them into a glossary for Tranman 2. The
following code will export the strings from a Tranman 1 DB:

OUTPUT TO myfile.csv.

FOR EACH xl_string_info, EACH xl_translation OF
xl_string_info:

EXPORT original_string trans_string.

END.


This will give you a quoted string - space delimited file
named myfile.csv. Each source string and instance
translation will be on a separate line.

You then follow the instructions in chapter 5.2 of the
Translation Manager Guide to import the .csv file into a
glossary. The global translation for a string will appear as
the first choice in the glossary entry, then the instance
translations will follow as secondary choices.
