Yes, here's what to do.  Open up PGP.  Select the key that you want. 
Then, choose export from the Key menu, I think.  While exporting 
there should be two checkboxes:  one for include secret key and 
another about compatibility with 6.x versions.  You need to check 
both.  Then, just copy that file over an import it into GnuPG.  Also, 
if it doesn't work the first time, you may need to fix the line 
endings on your file to be line feeds instead of line feeds and 
carriage returns.
