Registering Trados 7 Jun 26, 2005

Thanks for sharing this, Ivan!
Just one thing to add:
Then I installed Trados7 without removing Trados6.5.

As with previous versions, this is possible (albeit not recommended); you should make sure, however, that you register the version you wish to use (Start - Programs - Trados FLx.x - Register Trados x.x).

Best regards,
Ralf
