I. L. Thomas,
Oops looks like you started a new topic from another thread instead of creating
a new message.
However, to answer your question, yes it is reasonable.
1. Tag your people that you want in the new file.
2. Then go to menu or tab: File -> Export -> Export to New Legacy Family File.
3. Choose the name of the new family file.
4. Options window opens for the file -> Tick the option: All Records with an
individual Tag of: choose tag that you used.
5. Check the options that you want for the new file.
6. Set up an Autosource options.
7. Click on the button Start the Export.
When it is done it will offer you the option to open the new file.

I would appreciate suggestions from those more expert than I am in using
Legacy Family Tree program.
I decided some time ago to put “everyone” into the same .FDB file. I
find it easy to use the Tags and to search, and I am familiar with the
various “families” that do not actually relate at all to my tree.
But I want to export a fairly large number of individuals from one
“family”, to be used within a separate .FDB file.
There may be a tutorial at Legacy FT website, but I have not explored that.
My idea is that I tag them, starting from the (several) most-recent and
working up (further in the past), thereby tagging and exporting those
from biologically unrelated families further in the “horizontal” direction.
I do NOT want to delete those individuals from my main (very large)
Legacy database.
For those that I want to export, there would not be many/any associated
images or other entities (files) not within my .FDB database.
Is this a reasonable method? And what are the explicit commands needed
to get all (say) Tag 8 exported to a single .FDB file?
