Do you have any idea what an XTD file is?

XML Type Definition file, I assume Dec 2, 2019

If so, it seems that you would have to examine it using a text editor and then tag it, before trying to process it with MemoQ (or any other TM tool)

Oh, do you mean an XDT file?
https://help.memoq.com/current/en/memoQWeb-help/mqw-import-term-base-(existing).html
According to that page, you also need an accompanying XML file. Do you have it? I'm not a MemoQ user, so I can't really help further.

So, you have XTD+XML files; I guess that you received a glossary in Multiterm format. What about open it in Multiterm and then exporting it to Excel, Word? Or, even better, as a XML file that MemoQ reads directly?
