My existing entries are used in Workbench, but if I choose "add new entry" in Multiterm, an error message appears: "null". After clicking OK, the next error message comes immediately: "java.lang.nullPointerException"
I can't imagine, what could have caused this.
I tried to create a new glossary from Excel and it doesn't work either. When I am ready with the process, the new glossary is empty.
Thanks for any help.

Quick, simple, and it has worked for me. You can find the whole article on http://talisma.sdl.com - SDL Multiterm - Article No. 2362
