This is a really nice feature in v7, Meg. My maternal grandmother was one

You can globally set the children's columns in Version 6 to 15. The difference
in Version 7 is that there is a globally setting of best fit which sets each
individual page. As has been said for over 15 siblings the scroll bar will
still need to be used.
