I still do not get anything useful working.

For now I am near to parse the gedcom file myself to get what I want for my 
table.

What I really want is:

(a) either get all surnames of a person
(b) or get all parnter names
(c) or get all names of married partners (wich is the same als the Family names 
in (a) - if my entries have been made correctly

Here an example of an individual:

0 @I48949664@ INDI
1 NAME Anna Margareta/Hüttmann/
2 GIVN Anna Margareta
2 SURN Hüttmann
1 SEX F
1 NAME Anna Margaretha/Hüttmann/
2 TYPE 6
2 GIVN Anna Margaretha
2 SURN Hüttmann
1 NAME /Wrage/
2 TYPE 3
2 SURN Wrage
1 NAME /Kruse/
2 TYPE 3
2 SURN Kruse

She has been married first to Wrage and got that Name until second marriage 
with Kruse.

Her name when she died was in short:

Anna Margareta Kruse, geb. (born) Hüttmann

long:

Anna Margareta Kruse, geb. Hüttmann, gesch. (divorced) Wrage.

Whatever I do can be a workaround only:

- Sometimes I may forget to add the new mariage name instead of adding it.
- MacStammbaum (MacFamilytree now I guess) produces a Gedcom file where each 
Family has a husband. It does not have families with a man just being father of 
a so called child.

In the table I will mark things like "have birth record church/administration" 
"have marriage record 1 2 3" and so on.

Maybe I will move the marriage record overview to a second tage just with all 
families but for now I need the marriage names added anyway.

Regards,

Jutta
