Edwin, Click and drag the right border of the Transfer column to the right to make it the size you want. Then double click the Description Column and as long as it is bigger than it needs to be it will shrink so you see all the columns on the screen. If your columns still extend beyond the right side of your screen, you can click on the right border of the Description column and drag it to the left to reduce its size.

That seems to work. Now I wish I could get the Description column to be a little narrower and the Transfer column a little wider. But I can’t seem to get that to work for me.
