Thank you both, Wendy and Virginia.....for your help and comments.....I had
seen someone use the border to bring in other spouses...once..and forgot
about that, and I'll never forget that quick way now to bring them up...

I've only had the problem with the one icon...not the siblings.....and I
will contact tech support for help on the problem. I am using Legacy 7.5 and
have Vista.
and where do I go in Legacy for trouble shooting problems?
Thank you again for your help

Barbara L.

I don't know why you're having that problem, but I can tell you about
another method for getting to a second (or third...) spouse.

In Family View there's a border around all the different areas, and this
is an active part of the window...

Click on the border between the husband and wife to cycle through the
siblings of the highlighted person.

Click on the border to the left of the husband to cycle through his wives.

Click on the border to the right of the wife to cycle through her husbands.

There are more clickable areas in the borders - look at the bottom of
the window as you move the cursor around, and the text box will change
to indicate what can be done at that place.

Hope this helps.  :-)

Kind Regards,
Wendy
