It's rather hard to get at under Windows. There's no column-boundary 
marker visible to the right of "Balance", and double-clicking where it 
would be produces an adjustment to the position of "Balance" with a 
corresponding change in "Description" and the appearance of a horizontal 
scrollbar.

After some lateral thinking I got this to work:
1. View->Transactin Journal (or View->Auto-Split)
2. View->Double Line
3. Make a Split line current
4. Position cursor on the edge of the (vertical) scrollbar, on the *top* 
line of the (two-line) heading, until you get the cursor change that 
indicates you can adjust the width of something.
5. Double-click.

If there's a simpler way it has escaped me.
