Change field levels in MultiTerm TB

I have a TB with 2 languages and some 10 descriptive fields at term level. Among those fields is a Definition and a Source field, both at the same level:

Term

       Definition

       Source

How can I move the Source field to a deeper level, so that I get this:

Term

       Definition

                Source

I have used the default export definition to create an xml file, I have created a new termbase and moved the Source field one level down, but after importing the xml file in the new termbase, the Source field is still at the same level as the Definition field.

I suppose I have to change the level of the Source field in the xml file, but I don't know how to do this?

Tank you for your help

    Firstly you need to:

    1. Export the *.xtd (termbase definition) and the term data itself (*.XML)

    2. Create a new Termbase using the *.xtd from the original termbase

    3. During reference, you can amend the entry structure.

    As you say

    How can I move the Source field to a deeper level, so that I get this:

    Term

           Definition

                    Source

    4. Once complete then import your term data (XML)

    I trust that's all the instructions you need
