I am sorry, but this is not working. Unfortunately, for me i have even 
lost ground.

In the description (green line for me---came that way) I can drag the 
bar in front of transfer, or even after transfer and it pops back.  it 
never stays where i drop. None of the areas stayed--they all popped 
back.  Further below i tried your double-click and now my transfer only 
shows "fer" of transfer.  the R column is still there, as is the 
decrease, but the increase column is now*GONE.*   It also moved 
everything even off the screen to the right, but it is back with the 
shortened descriptions.

I also want to thank you for the screen shot with blue.  I typed this in 
blue for you....grin
