Edward,
Take a look at the LIST-LABEL command.
I don't have an Unidata system
handy so I did this in jBASE.
jsh  ~ -->LIST-LABEL MD
Cols,Rows,Skip,Indent,Size,Spaces{,C} :4,1,0,0,15,2
PAGE   
1                                            10:10:02  16 JUL 2008
ENTER.FLDSPLY    WIN.FTTOASC      BLOCK-TERM       NSELECT
LOADT           
AUX.PGM          SELECT-INDEX     PIX.GUI.FORM.F
TERM            
ECOPY            PIX.GUI.CONTROL  F/REALLOC
L/UPD            ENTER.VAL       
WIN.DDE          MEMO.ENTRY
WIN.TWUSE        SET-STACK        CUSTOM.OPTIONS  
WO.OPTIONS
CREATE-FILE      S/AMC            LFQ*0            LOGOFF
.
.
.
The
LIST-LABEL command allows sorting, selecting, etc.
Good luck,

Subject: [U2] Multiple columns from a LIST statement?
Hello,

This is a unidata (7.1) reporting question, and I'm asking because
although I can't find the answer in the documentation, I do think I've
seen it
once on another developer's screen.

Suppose I list a file with a command like
LIST ACCOUNTS. I'd get a list
of the IDs down the left hand side of the page
but a lot of wasted space
elsewhere - and a maximum of 22 / 60ish records per
screen / A4 page. So
what I'm wondering is if there's a way to have the report
make use of
multiple columns, using the horizontal space available before
jumping to
the next page?

Thanks

Edward
