I think she is asking why the program doesn't correct its mistake. As one gathers more information, there will always be spouses discovered. There needs to be a string that automatically removes the "someone" when an actual name is entered.
Correcting one marriage is not the issue. Correcting them ALL is ridiculous. Legacy did say this error had been fixed. I guess not, huh?

What I finally came up with to fix it was to unlink the couple and then re-link them. I did this using the Marriage List. Jennifer From: Jan Roberts [mailto:poo...@ozemail.com.au] Sent: Thursday, 20 May 2010 9:18 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Married 'Someone' I have just been reading through a report I created yesterday (after having converted pdf to doc, edited – or so I thought – resaved as pdf, uploaded to my newly created wiki!) and have noticed that I have the ubiquitous Fred married someone Mary Jane BROWN. I thought this problem had been resolved some time ago. Originally I had an unknown wife for Fred, but recently added a name. Obviously the someone is a hangover from when her name was unknown. How does one resolve this problem other than having to read through every report word for word once it has been created. At the moment I tend to rely on Word’s spelling error identifier to check for spelling errors, as well as making any additions or deletions that I know I need – I’d prefer not to have to check the wording of every marriage statement just in case the extraneous ‘someone’ is in place.
