I am having an issue trying to create a gedcom file.  I have created several gedcoms in the past, but not for the last year.

My process:
I open the export file and select gedcom 5.5.1. I then indicate all the records in the file. I then select the Enter file name and Start box. When the file name selection box opens, I then enter the name for the gedcom to be created in the selected directory.

Now the interesting part.

At this point I SAVE the file name and the selection box disappears. There is a brief, very brief pause, and the export screen closes. So far so good.

However, the file is not being created.  It is not in my indicated directory, nor can I find it anywhere on the drive.

I am at a loss.  I have tried several scenarios, I have checked the help and I have searched the previous emails.

Any help would be appreciated.Can't

I can't be of much help, I'm afraid, as I just followed your steps and it worked fine. One thing you didn't mention is a small info screen at the end telling you that the Gedcom export was complete, so presumably you didn't get this. (I nearly missed it because it came up on my 2nd monitor which was switched off so I thought nothing had happened at first because the initial screen was still showing!)
