Graham, Go to Options>Customise>View and check the radio button "On Marriage Info" under "Show Status on Family View". This will show "(Divorced)" after the marriage details on Family View.

Unlinking the wife from the husband sets her name as 'Unknown' and also unlinks her from any children of that marriage.> Ideally I want to preserve the record of the marriage and the relationship of the children to both their mother and father, but for the couple to be 'unmarried'.> Any advice (to a relative novice) would be welcome. Incidentally I am using ver 6 deluxe.> Graham _________________________________________________________________ Get free emoticon packs and customisation from Windows Live. http://www.pimpmylive.co.uk Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
