RC-WinTrans can be used in conjunction with translation memory products from
SDL
and text file-based dictionaries from RC-WinTrans.
Translation memory (TM) use is fully integrated into RC-WinTrans via the
TM Workbench Add-On described below. This add-on allows
access to a TM's contents for finding and applying translations while working with RC-WinTrans. Further functionality for maintaining a TM's contents
(adding, deleting, and modifying entries) is provided for SDL Trados TMs and for RC-WinTrans text file (.txt/.tmx) dictionaries.

SDL Trados TM
Create, edit and use an SDL Trados translation memory (.sdltm) with RC-WinTrans.
A TM can be expanded with new entries and updated by modifying or deleting texts.

Trados V3.0 through SDL Trados V7.5
Support for Trados TMs has been an important RC-WinTrans feature for nearly 15 years. The well-integrated solution has been very popular
with translators and localization professionals who have enjoyed and relied upon the tools' combined effectiveness.
Current support status: Versions 3.0 through 7.5 of Trados products are no longer offered by the manufacturer but are still supported by RC-WinTrans.

RC-WinTrans TM Workbench
The Translation Memory Workbench Add-On extends RC-WinTrans' functionality with access to a translation memory file (.sdltm) from SDL Trados.
The add-on connects with an SDL Trados TM to quickly and easily supply translations while working with RC-WinTrans. With the TM Workbench a
selected TM can also be expanded with new entries and updated by modifying or deleting texts.
Opened in its own window outside the main RC-WinTrans application, the TM Workbench has multiple display panels, including one listing the
TM's contents, another listing the results of a search, and two more comparing translation units (source and target texts) in the TM and in
RC-WinTrans.
See the
online help for the TM Workbench
for further details.
