  Date-times are specified in the following format:

  YYYY/MM/DD [HH:MM:SS:UU]

  When this feature is enabled, if you add a new translation for an existing source segment in the TM, the existing record will be replaced.

  To enable this feature, go to Tools > Preferences, then click on the Memory tab, and select “One translation per source segment.”

  Note: You should set this option before loading any TMs. If you change it after a TM is loaded, you could get unexpected results.
