You could probably achieve this with sql and tagging. Tag1 as before Tag2 based on people whose parents are both not tag1 (if either one is tag1 then no tag2) then step 4

Dennis, Correct on both counts. I assumed that if you removed the "All Spouses" option by just selecting the immediate spouse of the Ancestor, that all descendant spouses would be dropped - wrong assumption. I guess that just includes the immediate spouse as well. I guess you could achieve this with an access module by in 4 stages 1) Clear 2 tag numbers for use as follows... 2) Tag everyone as I suggested in the Focus group. 3) Using MSAcees code, run through each person to see whether either of their parents has this tag, if not, tag them with a different tag number. 4) back to Legacy and a normal search that contains the first tag but not the second.

Leave the default to >descendants and not the Entire Descendant Line. Assuming you are talking about setting up a Focus Group, I think that still gives me all the spouses of descendants. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools/Custom Programming) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools NOTE TO LUG USERS: Use plain text if you want me to read your post.
