Post title: Attila-san, Thanks for your reply!
Dear Attila-san,
Thank you so much for your reply!
As I commented in the reply to Dominique-san, I meant to extract relevant terminology.
So I guess, if my client insists, I will have to do that manually or let them install wordfast also so that they can refer to the TM I created.
By the way, about using the entire segments as terms, it would be nice for me to completely understand how to do the Conversion between table and text for future purpose.
I did not quite understand what you kindly told me:
"(using Word's "convert text to table" and "Convert table to text" functions, with deleting unnecessary columns in between)."
The source files I have are following:
Original Jap doc (MS WORD)
TXML file I worked on in Wordfast
TM file I created in Wordfast
Translated EN doc (MS WORD)
Sorry if this is a too simple question to ask...
I appriciate your respone!
Thanks&Warm Regards,
Yuko

If that's what you need, it is quite straightforward (using Word's "convert text to table" and "Convert table to text" functions, with deleting unnecessary columns in between).
If you want to extract relevant terminology than you have the manual solution proposed by Dominique or you can try various terminology extract tools (which will require quite a lot of extra manual fine tuning).
