    3. However, for a person with multiple marriages, I don't think RootsMagic reports are smart enough to output the corresponding divorce or death dates on the same line as the marriage date for a given couple. It may output them in the order the facts were entered and thus mix up on the same line facts from two couples. I suspect the only way to do this reliably is an export to some software that does give that report or to develop a custom SQLite query of the RootsMagic database.

    3. You are right on Tom. It's not a great idea, but at least a possibility. In RM there is no built in way to calculate the combination of dates to relationships. Knowing you, you probably could do it with SQLite. ????

    3. Okayyy, I did something with SQLite. I think it works except for outliers such as a couple in the distant past who are surely deceased for whom there is no event to terminate the marriage and probably not for a couple who married, divorced and remarried. In both cases, it will give results but maybe not realistic. Also, it just calculate the length of marriage in years from the years of the events, not down to months and days. Interested? I won't get to posting it for a while. Tom On Sat, Feb 14, 2015 at 11:44 PM, Sue Maxwell <[email protected]> wrote: > You are right on Tom.

    3. With all of the above in mind, Using the Marriage Status at death of a spouse would terminate the marriage so RM could calculate a length of marriage. The Spouse death is not shown on the partner's facts otherwise. This means doing it as a routine as you go.
