You can also double click the column headers of all but the description
column. Last, double click the header for the description column.
This automatically sets the columns' widths to just the minimum needed to
display the contents of the fields, except the description column.
Description column automatically adjusts to normalize the page width.
Kind regards, Greg Feneis
