Here is a simple macro to do that.

Fourth version Mar 3

Version 4: When you run the macro for the first time, you will be prompted to select a TMX file. If you want to change the selected TMX file, just leave the Source segment or Target segment field empty, clear the Remember TMX check box, and click OK.
