I would imagine it would work to tag marriages that you come across where one or both spouses died leaving behind young children so you check on whether the surviving spouse remarried or if someone was appointed guardian. However, that could be done in the To Do list. In the marriage view, I would rather be able to note the church location of the marriage rather than having to make it an event to record the church name. In the deluxe versions of 6.0 and 7.0 everything else has the link to record an address, but not a marriage. So I make it a marriage event so I can keep record of it.

Under search you can find all marriages that have status "divorced" but at this point the option to tag all of those marriage records has not been added to the program. You can manually set those tags in Legacy and then use the Marriage Tag tool at the bottom right to look at each of the tagged marriages. Another good example would be to find all marriages with place containing "Boise". The search works well but again there is no option to set those marriage tags for the search results. Instead, you can set the individual tag but if an individual has multiple marriages...not all of them will be in Boise so you will have to page through them to find the one that triggered the tag.

Summary: Marriage tagging could be a valuable tool and should be developed. Millennia needs to add to the "Advanced Tagging" the option to tag the marriages. Most of the other tools are already present to use those tags in searches, etc.

Yes, I belong to those most people, and never had any reason to use the Marriage Tag. I only meant that a user who tagged the marriages can print the Search List of those tagged marriages.
How usefull this is? I don't know.

Like most people, I find the full range of Individual Tags indispensable, use the Source Tag sometimes and the Location Tag occasionally, but have never had any reason to use a Marriage Tag.

Perhaps I'd better clarify that. I meant the "like most people" to apply to the first part only, about Individual Tags.
