Hi Erin, Where did you get that copy of the umls? I have 2016AA and it has the standard .rrf filenames.
As long as your .aa/.ab files have the standard mrconso.rrf format, you should be able to rename them to mrconso.rrf.

I ask because the more recent versions of the UMLS include two MRCONSO files (.aa and .ab), which is not compatible with the current implementation of the GUI tool. Is it best to just use an older version of the UMLS (if so, which version) or has anyone had success modifying the source code to use both files in newer versions?
