I haven't used focus groups, as I haven't yet found a need for them. But,
gosh, this seems like such a useful tool, I'd like to see some discussion on
both using and creating them.
Can't you create a specialized focus group? Isn't there a way to combine

Hi Michele,
I don't use Focus Groups much as I think in terms of tagging and tend
to tag each group I'm interested in on the same tag.
However, if I set up Focus Groups instead, I could more easily tag

Diane,
Yes you can include several definitions of a focus group in a single
export. When you have more that one defined group in the focus group

Can a person set up numerous focus groups, example Ancestors of Joe Brown,
Descendants of Solomon Smith, etc, etc and have the contents of each be
included in the export of one gedcom?
