What happens when you just create a normal gedcom? You can always test that and delete afterwards If that works try successive reports with different criteria to see if you replicate the zero report Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) >I am having great difficulty creating a gedcom file for some unknown reason > or I am missing something in the process. > > These are the steps I have taken:- > > File - Export - Partial - Select.

After the select and going back to the export screen, what is the number of individuals listed for the export? If there is no one selected, then you would not get a file. Same suggestion as already suggested, but with a check to be sure. You might also try a full export as a trial also.
