I have a group made of some nodes.

I want to export it.

Is it simply a case of clicking on the group boundary and exporting?

I know this is a _dumb question_ - but don't forget who's asking the question.  
(The village's idiot)

I've really been away for NR for a long time (maybe 12 months) and only done a little work on it ITMT, so I have fallen out of sync with things.

Thanks in advance.

Why not try it and then re-import? That will show you exactly what it does.

Yeah, sorry. I just had to ask, because in the past if I don't ask, what I try fails and I have to ask anyway.
