is it possible to export somebodys elses tree? I have been given access to see their tree and they are related so I would like to update my tree by exporting their tree and putting the 2 together (to save lots of typing)? Thanks

No - they would have to export their tree and send the gedcom file to you by email. Having said that - are you sure you want to import the whole of their tree without previously checking the data? Not a wise move!!

They can create a Gedcom File which only includes those who link to you.
