Debs, if you have the free tree on Tribal pages, as far as I am aware, you cannot export from there, just had a look, you can import Gedcom, but not export.

Not familiar with Tribalpages, but you should be able to create a GEDCOM. It will pobably be something like click on file, choose export entire file, select GEDCOM as the format you want, then save the file (remember where you have saved it to).

Then come into GR homepage, scroll down to the foot of the screen where it says Import GEDCOM. Hit the browse button, and go to where you saved the file and select it.
