Would someone be so kind as to tell me how to run an F8 terminology verification on a multifile SDL package? Thanks. Paul

Select all the files in the package Nov 22, 2020

Right click open for translation.
Press F8.
A list of errors appears.
As you move down the list with the down arrow on the keyboard, the cursor goes to the place in the documents and you can make a correction if necessary.
That is how I use it in Trados 2021.

F8 on Lenovo Nov 22, 2020

The F8 on my Lenovo does nothing except bring in a side window that has nothing to do with SDL.

You can access the same function Nov 22, 2020

By clicking on « Review » on the ribbon and then « Verify » (next to « Spelling »)

That's why I hate Lenovo. Try pressing the Fn button together with the F8 key. Does it work for you?
