Hi Steven, the solution to your problem is to export the database with a filter which matches all entries that do NOT belong to that particular subject and import this file into an empty database. There is no way to batch delete entries in MultiTerm. A user always has to export with a filter that provides the entries to be retained and import afterwards in a new termbase. This applies to all versions of MultiTerm. Kind regards, Ulrich | | | dgmaga (X) английский => испанский You can use MultiTerm iX API | Nov 25, 2004 |
Hi, If you are into programming or know someone who can help you, you can try using the MultiTerm iX API. You can create a list with the entry numbers that you want to delete and then create a macro that uses the MT iX API to delete the entries from the list. I hope this helps!

Thank you, Ulrich and Daniel. Both methods seem like sound approaches, but I'll go with Ulrich's idea since I already know how to do that one.
