I am new to the user group, so I hope I am not misunderstanding your question. I put the married name in the AKA field, then use the options in the Index tab so that the AKAs show. Then change the index view columns to include the spouse name. That way you have all the information you want right on the index tab with no problem.

Yes, I know this problem has been asked before but I am such a devotee of Legacy that I keep thinking there must be a way to crack it with Legacy search power and some work-around process. If I know a woman’s married name is Mary Smith [with “Mary” and “Smith” the predominate names in my file – making a “Name List” search difficult] - but do NOT know her maiden name or the Given Name of her husband, how can I locate her in the file? If I should also know her birth place or place of marriage, I can narrow it down to a workable number using “Find/Detailed Search” – but with no other information beside the married name, then …!
     Help, please, from you puzzle experts.
     I have Windows XP-Home and use Legacy Deluxe v.6.0.0.64
