I'm trying to make a Gedcom to transfer some information to another
program, can I do this by tagging? or do I have to create a focus group.
thanks for any help........Carol

There is a wonderful facility in the 'Edit' menu - last one on the list -
or CTR T.
If your curser is on the earliest individual you've got the option of
giving all of
his/her descendants a tag number. I do it often - tag and export. Works
wonders.
Of course, if you've got 'side' lines attched to those descendants and you
want to
export those families too - go to the earliest individual and do the same
thing -
with the same tag number. Saves hours!!!
I am using Ver 5.
PS: You can also go to Descendants View - Options - customise columns and
make one column a Tag # column. That way it will show up (with the
proverbial
X) in the Descendants View for each individual with that tag number. If
you find
one has been missed, click on 'Edit' and tag with your chosen number.
