Hello, I have a project of 18K words, comprised of 74 small sdlxliff files, I'm using Memoq 2015 (need to upgrade!) & I'm trying to find out if it's possible to merge sdlxliff files during import into MemoQ.

Even if I could merge the files into 3 or 4 single files this would be better than working on 74 individual... See more

Even if I could merge the files into 3 or 4 single files this would be better than working on 74 individual files. This is possible with Trados, see link, but not with MemoQ as far as I can see, I've searched thoroughly online & in Kilgray's website, to no avail. NB, this is for import, so they are merged when working in MemoQ, not for merging at export.

Thanks in advance!

No need to join them at import - Simply create a View Jan 13, 2020

You can easily work with all SDLXLIFF files as a lump (or in many other ways) by importing all files and then creating a View of the documents, or sets of documents to your pleasure! Check for how to create a view in memoQ in the online help.
