Click on the Spouse icon for the person you want to sort spouses for. This will open up the "Spouse List" box. You can also use the view menu to open the spouse list. The Spouse list will show all of the spouses of the subject person. Click sort on the right side of the box and the spouse will be sorted by marriage date. If you don't know the marriage date of the first spouse enter "Bef 1932", or whatever is the date of the next marriage for the subject person.
Using the help menu, enter sort and then "marriages". This will give you many other options about the spouse list.

I use 1st, 2nd, etc in the marriage date field in those cases. I started that when I received information that said "His 4th wife was ..." with no dates of any sort. Whether it shows up on the Charting Companion I dunno.
