This note made me pause to consider what exactly is not working in the current 
build (August 10) as far as GEDCOMs are
concerned.  I reviewed a recent GEDCOM that I had created (from a focus group) 
and I see that the "detail text" in my
sources is not being exported (the sources are, the comments are, but the 
detailed text is not).  So, I went back and
started the export process again to check the options.  On the main "GEDCOM 
Export" screen there is an option that says
"Override Source Options - include all source information".  Not knowing 
exactly what that was referring to I clicked
"Help".  "Help" says "if unselected, the information that is suppressed, 
according to the source detail options, is
excluded from the GEDCOM export".  Hmmm.  Where would the "source detail 
options" be???  I went to "Options",
"Customize", and then "Sources".  I see plenty of options dealing with sources 
and reports, but none dealing with
sources and GEDCOMs.  The detail text and the comments are printing properly on 
my reports because I have those options
selected.

This reminded me that one of the few things I really dislike about Legacy is 
that the options are scattered
everywhere!!!  So now I don't know if this is another one of those problems 
referenced by Sherry as being part of the
focus group problems, or if this is a general GEDCOM problem not yet 
recognized, or if there really is yet another place
somewhere that has GEDCOM export options.  If it is the latter would some kind 
person please tell me where this option
is located??
Thanks

Even exporting to a Legacy file isn't working correctly.  Exporting a tagged 
group should be working ok in the 10 Aug
build, but not a focus group.

Thanks for using Legacy.
