To change the column widths, drag the right-separator-line in the

Description column 'fit', drag the right-separator-line to the LEFT a
fair distance and then let it go. It will snap back to the right, but
auto-sized to not produce scroll bars. (that is, Description will fill
the balance of the horizontal space in the window)
I am sorry, but this is not working. Unfortunately, for me i have even
lost ground.
In the description (green line for me---came that way) I can drag the
bar in front of transfer, or even after transfer and it pops back. it
never stays where i drop. None of the areas stayed--they all popped
back. Further below i tried your double-click and now my transfer only
shows "fer" of transfer. the R column is still there, as is the
decrease, but the increase column is now*GONE.* It also moved
everything even off the screen to the right, but it is back with the
shortened descriptions.
I also want to thank you for the screen shot with blue. I typed this in
blue for you....grin
I've attached a screenshot showing the header and marking that
right-separator line and even put an arrow pointing to it.
For all columns *except* the Description column, you can double-click
their headers and they will auto-size to fit the content of any
transaction in those columns. (similar to spreadsheet apps)
ALWAYS size the Description column last.
If you don't like the Description column filling the remainder of the
space and being so wide, you have one option:
Size your overall window smaller horizontally and then re-size the
Description column as described above. how would i go about this? i
am open to anything.
