First Time User. Entering myself, sister, brother, mother, father, spouse. Run a text report on an individual (me I00001), "Close Relatives" .. Report comes back:
Close Relatives of Weaver, Paul James
Father
ID Name
I00002 Here's my Father
Mother
ID Name
I00003 Here's my Mother
Sister
ID Name
I00004 Here's my Sister
Brother
ID Name
I00005 Here's my Brother
Husband
ID Name
I00006 Here's my WIFE!
I've checked the genders on me (male) and my wife (female) and the report is showing THEIR Relationship to me, e.g., mother, father, sister, etc., EXCEPT in the case of spouse, it shows MY relationship to them, i.e. Husband. If I run a text, close relatives, report on my spouse, it shows me as her WIFE.
This seems inconsistent (the relationship headings). Am I doing something wrong? I've got a big family to input here, and I want to get it right from the start.
Any assistance is appreciated. Contact me directly, if you wish.
Thank you.

Thank you for using Ancestris.
I have checked if there is a bug in the report, no trouble in the code or in the program.
I believe that you have modified the gender after you have created the family.
So, you was defined as the Wife of the couple and your wife as the Husband of the couple.
You can check this in the Entities Table.
Open the table from menu View => Entities Table
Then click on the family button to display the family entities.
Then select your family and check in the husband and wife column which people is displayed.
If the spouses are inverted, right-click on the family line and choose in the context-menu "Swap Spouses"

Thank you for your quick and comprehensive response. Your solution went perfectly. 75 other "families" followed that first one and I didn't do it again ... fortunately!
Thanks, again!
