John,
You have to open the database in read-write exclusive mode, choose
tools/term manager/activate, then keywords, then tools/term
manager/purge
The program will scroll through deleting each keyword that isn't used
anymore allowing you to choose yes or yes to all.
BUT MAKE A COPY OF YOU DATABASE FIRST. Sometimes when you choose 'yes to
all' the program will either crash or take so long that you end up
terminating it. Then sometimes the term list you are working on will be
corrupted. This seems particularly bad when trying to get rid of unused
journals.

Subject: How to clean terms from list of terms
I have a number of incorrectly entered terms in the my RM11.0 Keywords
dictionary that I would like to clean up and redo.
I can find them messed up terms using the Term Manager, and use Quick
Retrieval to pull up the record where the offending terms are, but I
cannot figure out how to update the dictrionary.
Even after I remove the offending terms from the Keyword field of the
record where they were originally entered, they do not disappear from
the Term List of the Term Manager.
How do I make them disappear?
