I use something like the following with RB6.5++ DOS version:

SET V vTitle TEXT = 'Order Number   Revision  Customer'
WRI .vTitle AT 07 01 WHITE ON BLACK
CHOOSE v1 FROM ............ AT 08 01

You control the spacing, color and position of the title.  Just have the
choose pop-up at the correct row.

Subject: Lining up TITLE with CHOOSE Box Data


I often use the TITLE option of the CHOOSE command to create column headings
for the data appearing in the CHOOSE box below if the data is multiple
columns from a table. However, several features of the the TITLE line make
this a challenge:

1.  The TITLE line is limited to 70 characters
2.  The placement of the text in the TITLE line is ALWAYS automatically
centered by R:Base
3.  The actual width of the text as it appears in the Title line will depend
on the characters in the text, since R:Base uses proportional fonts

What I WANT in the display would look something like this:

ORDER NUMBER  REVISION       CUSTOMER

0010721                   02/01/2001       NIDEC POWER
0010722                   02/01/2001       ACT MANUF.
0010723                   02/01/2001       ABC MANUF.
0010724                   02/01/2001       IRONBRIDGE
