Tony, For recording a divorce there is only the Marriage Status entry. If you wish to include all the details (which generally I don't) then I would probably do something along the lines you suggest, but rather than create a Spouse Divorce Event I think that I would create a Marriage Divorce Event. --- Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ GOONS #5307
