I have version 7.4.0.45 1. In family view I go the the "View" of the main menu bar and choose "Focus Group" 2. In Focus Group " Window, I select "add an individual and & his descendants" button. 3. That takes me to "Descendant Options". I click the button for "Enter descendant line" (My person's name and ID number is in the current individual box.) 4. I click "OK" and it goes back to "Focus Group Window." I click "Save". 5. Then I close the remaining window which is "Focus Group" 6. Then I go to "File" on the menu bar and select "Export to Gedcom" and get the Gedcom Export" screen. On that I click "record selection. Then in "Gedcom record selection" I select "selected records contained in the focus group. 7. Then I click the button for "Select focus group" 8. I highlight the correct focus group & click "record selection" 9. Then I click "select file name and start export" in a window titled "Export Gedcom File" 10. It says only "This folder is empty." 11. Then I cuss a lot.
