It is not possible within MemoQ 10.6.8 to export a term base as a tab delimited .txt file. The options for export are: CSV, XLSX or Multiterm XML

Are there any other tools I can use to automatically convert any of *those* to a delimited .txt glossary?

Use Excel for converting .xlsx Apr 18

Open the File menu and select the Save as... command.
In the Save as type drop-down box, select the Text (tab delimited) (*. txt) option.
Select the Save button. If you see warning messages pop up, select the OK or Yes button.

Export as txt Apr 18

Right click the termbase you want to export, select Export Terminology. Uncheck the fields you don't want to export (if any) and click the ellipses button in the upper right corner. Select 'Tab-separated text file (*.txt)' That's it.

This is not possible with MemoQ:
https://docs.memoq.com/current/en/webNext-help/mqw-nxt-resources-tbs-tb-export.html

MemQ allows export of term bses only as csv, xlsx, or multiterm xml.

Did you try? I did.

I wonder why Kilgray said this Apr 19

Interesting. I didn't, as I had been explicitly told by MemoQ support that MemoQ does not allow this. I wonder why they would say this. Perhaps they view 'terminology' as being somehow inferior to a 'term base'.
