Ex-husband applied I-130 before

Hi forum,
I just realized something. I married my 1st husband (USC) right after graduation in '96 (F-1 status). Then we moved back to my country soon after. The American Embassy in Jakarta convinced me not to apply for a greencard first, since we lived in Indonesia, instead they kept giving me a tourist visa (B2). Then the officer told him to apply I-130 for me first. I was pretty blind about the immigration process back then so we went ahead and did what was suggested in '99 (just I-130, nothing else). I remember we received 3-4 letters about that, not sure what it was (maybe a receipt? visa number?). But that was it, we didn't pursue any further. Long story short, we got separated in 2004, divorced in 2006, then I got re-married again to another USC.
My question is ---- is that gonna affect my greencard process with my 2nd husband? Since I completely ignored those letters. Now that I have more thorough knowledge about immigration, didn't it mean that my visa number was readily available back then in 99, since it was immigration by immediate family member? I totally forgot about this whole thing until this morning. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
