I don't think that's a problem. When you add a child to someone, without giving him/her a spouse it shows in Reports as "X married someone." If you then click in the blank area for the spouse of X, parent of the child, and enter details those details do or should replace "Someone" on the Report. However, if you click on the "Spouses" icon because you want to give X a new (different to the parent of the child) spouse the child's parent shows as Unknown and you add a second spouse. The machine can definitely distinguish between you adding details to the "placeholder" for an unknown spouse and adding a new (or existing) person as an additional spouse. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
