The question is as stated in the subject line.

TMX files can be opened in most CAT tools, but I'm curious if MemoQ (I am using version 2014R2) can access the Trados Studio server-based, remote TM by using the "Check Out From Server" button.

Thanks!

Another point is that usually agencies and/or direct clients don't exploit most of the features of Studio and server-based TM's are a bit fancy.
Thus, you may also ask your client to send you a project package that includes the relevant TM.
