Spouses name in column in Record Window

Post by AlasdairMacG » 09 Feb 2005 13:35

Can anyone help with how I can get a column showing Sposes Name in the Record Window please? I have tried to use the 'Lists - Configure Record Window Columns', but without success.

Many thanks.[confused]

I tried to use this link to see how I add the spouse name to the Records Window but all I got was US born - has it changed, if so can you put the spouse name demo back online?

Click on 'Links' on the main menu of this website and then 'How to' and you'll see the 'Adding a column to the record window' demo there.

Hi Jane
How do I add a column for another spouse eg second wife? I suspect it's not difficult but I couldn't get my head around it last night.
