Elaine,
what's the value of your syspref item-level_itypes?
(Admin > System preferences > Cataloguing)

If it's set to 'specific item' then you won't get any results from the
export unless there is a item on the bibliographic records.
If you set it to 'biblio record' then you can export records without items.

Regards,
Bernardo
