Jenny,
The include entire line option will not limit it to only the
grandfather's ancestors. That option will come down to the person then,
in going back up from that point will include all the other grandparent
lines. I find that that the include entire line option frequently
includes everyone in the file except those in unconnected trees.
It is probably better to use two focus groups.
The first will include the person (grandfather) and their ancestors
using the options to include other spouses and include siblings with
spouses of siblings
The second will include the same grandfather and their descendants with
the option to include Descendants.
When that set is used the export will include only the ancestors of the
grandfather and only his descendants.

Can this list include all ancestors children and their descendent?
If, like me, you have included an "identifier" in the UserId which
indicates which of my 4 grandparent lines every individual belongs to,
it is very easy to extract a complete line by searching for all those
with the appropriate UserID.
Otherwise I would create a Focus Group - View>Focus Group>Add an
Individual and Entire Family Line. You can then go to File>Export and
select GEDCOM or Legacy and chose the Focus Group you have just created
as the records to export.
