Can someone share with me the procedure of how one creates gedcom files using Family Tree Maker (I run FTM8.0) of PART of one's database.

I wish to send a particular branch of my family and when I click on the origin ancestor to export as a gedcom file, the whole database transfers and not just origin ancestor and his descendants.

I used the Help file for "exporting a group of individuals" as a ged file, however it did not work for the isolated group but took the whole database file.

What is it that I am not doing correctly.

Help please

Elizabeth
