Thanks very much for your help, Robin.

I agree that Divorce is a logical inclusion in this report, and I've since
seen that that suggestion has been made several times by others on this
list. I will follow that up on the WG Forum wish list.

As I mentioned in a separate reply to Pat Ricketts, my other problem was
solved when I checked both principals as per your suggestion, and found that
the Marriage event was Primary in only one of them! Thanks again.
