Thanks for the input.I have just started using gnucash, on a windows box, so
all of the inputs are from CSV files. I checked the csv file for the account
that I am using as a guinea pig and there are no description fields that extra
characters. The longest line in the file is 80 characters. The fact that it
is 80 gives me pause, but the import didn't fail.
could this be a csv import 'feature' ?
i will try to use a quicken format from the source to see if the same occurs
during import.

Hi,
If you want to hardcode the widths of columns, you can do that in user data. I
wanted my books and accounts to all be exactly the same so I did it this way.
Depending on your OS, the user data locations are described here:

I have found how to make the fonts large enough to read through inspection of
the mailing list history. it is now 14pt.
This is great but now the gnucash window has to be almost, 80% of my screen
width. 70% of that width is due to the width of the description field.
through the mailing lists I have found that double clicking the vertical bars
between the fields will adjust them to the width of the data. It works for all
but the description field. This field behaves as if there is an extra 200
spaces attached to the end of each entry. Trying to pull the right hand
vertical bar will move the header, temporarily, but the field width remains the
same.
Is there some way to hard code, force, change the width of the description
field?
