When TM automatically builds teams..it moves individuals around to make up teams. 
It does not move blocks of two players around to build teams...so for the type of tournament you are running TM cannot automatically build teams...

There are three ways to build teams for this type tournament...

Option 1:

Setup a tournament with 4 players per team...in the signup sheet drag and drop the 4 appropriate players on each team.  You are simple manually building teams.

Option 2:

Assume you are running a 25 -- 4 player per team tournament.
1. Create the tournament.
2. On Tournament Parameters specify 25 teams and 2 players per team
3. On Signup Sheet..signup only the men to play in the tournament.
4. Give the men the combined handicap of their handicap and wife's handicap.
5. On the Tournament Sheet..let TM automatically build your 2 player teams.

You now have 2 player per teams with just the men.

5. Click Tournament Parameters and change the number of players per team from 2 TO 4 players per team
6. Pull down TOOLS menu and select "Update handicaps from roster" to change men's handicaps back to there original value.
7. On Signup Sheet..signup the appropriate ladies with the corresponding men.

You now have 2 couples per team.
