Valerie - I've had odd problems from time to time too, and usually it's due to some circumstance that neither I nor anyone else has thought of because it wouldn't ordinarily even be relevant.
I've tried this, and I can't make mine NOT list the first wife first, in all of the various ways of making Descendant lists. Even making the second wife the Preferred one does not change the order in mine. My question is; have you tried the exact same thing on several different couples? First on one that doesn't work, then try exactly the same set of key steps on different couples and see if it works on ANY of them. If it does, there may be some peculiarity in the data of the first couple, which no one has thought to mention. On the other hand, if it does NOT work on ANY of them, there's some problem in the program. Maybe you, or someone else has already thought of this, but I thought I'd put it out for your consideration..........
