Hi Chris, In Family View, with her in the main position, Right click and choose View - husband list. On the dialogue that opens there are arrows to order the marriages. You can also choose which one is preferred. If you think you have this situation of wrongly ordered marriages a lot in your database you may want to use the Tool on the Tools Ribbon, Other Tools - Sort Child, Marriage and Event Lists. You can choose which lists to sort globally and elect to not sort those lists where a date is missing.
Legacy 8 should be sorting marriages automatically on data entry depending on your setting at Options 2.2 So are you sure they are out of order. I'm not sure where you are seeing the marriages. "Index View" in Legacy speak is a particular list of individuals, not marriages - unless you've chosen to show a spouse or two in the customisable columns. If you mean you've added married names to the Index View, they'll appear in alpha order. But perhaps you mean somewhere else. What order are they in when you do a book report starting from her?
