Working on Batch M3TD-YV4. In this batch all names are typed. In this example, you have a column of Females and next is a column of Males. You are to identify the Principal and then the Spouse. If the Males column came before the Females, I would specify that the Male is the Principal and the Female is the Spouse. In my example can a Female be identified as a Principal and a Male as the Spouse?
