[GNC] Question: how to see end of line in invoice editing screen

[sunfish62 at yahoo.com]

Mark, his columns are too narrow to see the full contents-- not the overall table. The scroll bar won't help him. 

Adam, this is a regular topic on the lists and is covered in the Guide. The description column is set to fill all remaining horizontal space automatically. Yes, it's confusing. No, it's not going to change. The normal workaround is to double click the title of all the other columns and then grab the *right* border of the description column and drag it over to the left.
