How can I best use MemoQ's termbase functionality for only using existing termbases for searches?
I have 12 different termbases for different sub-domains within the subject field Technology and want to be able to search all 12 simultaneously for each search and get the hits displayed in parallel mode (not hierarchical mode) (as the concepts are used in SDL Trados Multiterm). In other words, for a geology term such as "capillary tension" and the term "capillary" for another sub-domain (another termbase), I want both terms to be displayed as hits in MemoQ.
I will complete the whole translation project in my customer's online CAT tool, so I am locked to it using it in the cloud. MemoQ would only serve as a termbase searcher in this case, and termbase builder (I want to add new terms and possibly new sub-domains for new termbases).
How do I go about doing above in the most efficient way that works in the end?
The project is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, and I was hoping to get started today Saturday with going through one of the files for this big project that I have received and extract terms from that file.
For using MemoQ only for termbases as described above, would I need to create a normal translation project in MemoQ?
I have SDL Trados Multiterm also, but feel that MemoQ's handling of terminology is far superior and user-friendly, so if possible I want to handle all terminology within MemoQ only.
Perhaps I should mention that the termbases are multilingual.

Export the individual termbases from memoQ and create a project in Xbench, allowing better bilingual concordance searching of multiple termbases simultaneously.
