Belinda, I have Legacy 7 and just checked this out for you. From the main tool bar, you can go to Options, Customize, Data Entry. At the bottom of the screen is the global setting for changing the wife's surname, or not changing married names. You can also make this change individually at the Marriage info window.
Hope this helps.
