Sandy Clunies 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 I want to send a TMG friend what I have on her lines. I have 877 of her ancestors in a focus group (my full project has 33,000+ people) ... what is the best and most goof-proof way to do this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Byram 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 To send a GEDCOM, select 'People in the Focus Group' on Step 4 of the export wizard. To send a TMG project, use the List of People report. Select 'Focus Group' as the subject. Use the Options / Secondary Output tab to create a new project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now that there's a new project with files in a separate folder - how can I email this to someone who also uses TMG 7.04? Do I separately attach each individual file? Am I right that my sources for those 877 people have all transferred to the new project - seems so on first glance. I did search both Lee and Terry's books but didn't find this TMG>TMG email transfer mentioned.Thanks, Jim! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry Reigel 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 Sandy, You could attach all the individual files, but there are a lot of them so it's easy to miss some, and they are large. Better to make a backup of that project, and email the backup. Making a backup both bundles them into a single file and compresses them, so you have a smaller package to email. Your correspondent "opens" the backup by using File > Restore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
