Hello Leith Lassie

I did this for the first ime last week and was amazed at how easy it was. so this is what I did.

Go to family tree heading at the same level as messgaes ,comunity etc and when you click on it a drop down appears and one choice is Gedcom. Click on Gedcom and simpy follow the instructions. I save all my branches by surname, onto my computer and then both printed them and saved them onto a disk.
Good luck

Bridget, I'm curious as to what you mean when you say that you save all branches by surname - how do you do this please?
