    This is for 2006, but hopefully works in 2005 too.

    First, create a new spouse (leave blank) by clicking on Spouse button > Create a New Spouse.
    Then in the menu at the top, click on People > Fix Relationship > Attach Spouse, and choose a name from the list.

      oh poop.

      I have entered already... him and his 3 wives and their 17 kids.. the only thing I havent done is entered wife number 1 and wife number 3's parents as they are one and the same, so would this work the same?

        Julie, if this follows on from your other thread, I presume that wife number 1 and wife number 3 are sisters.

        In your index of individuals do you now have wife number 3 entered twice - once on the family page as sister of wife number 1, and then on the family page as the third wife?

          wife 1 and 3 sisters, I have just looked in my fam file list thing and they are only listed once.

          I havent actually put them as sisters yet, I have assigned the wives to William but havent assigned any parents to any of them, or added Elizabeth to Mary as a sister.. yet

            OK - go to Mary and add her parents.
            Then with the cursor on the parent's name, click on PEOPLE / FIX RELATIONSHIP / ATTACH CHILD
            This will bring up the Index of Individuals - find Elizabeth and click on her name. She will then show up as a sister to Mary. It's possible it may query that she also appears as the wife of Mary's husband, and is that correct - but of course you know the answer to that!
