Is that an event for an individual? The Legacy Help is quite clear in
saying that marriage related substitutions will not work in individual
events. This is reasonable considering that a person may have multiple
marriages and then Legacy would not know which marriage to use for the
[husbsurname] or [wifemarriedname].
If the sentence is used in an event for the marriage and your override
does not work then you have a bug that you should submit to Support.

Now let's say Mary Smith married Don Juan.
It should read "Mrs. Juan was..." but Legacy's output is "Mrs. Smith
was...". I have Smith in the individual's surname, then her married name
as an alternate.
Now if I swap her married name with her maiden name, it reads Mrs. Juan
but then I get the error that her married name is the same as her
husband's. Well, yeah.
Did I maybe find a glitch?
Alternatively, I thought I could simply do it this way:
Mrs. [HusbSurname] was a [desc] [inPlace].
Nope! It still shows Smith.
Why?
I'm so confused.
