I do, and its handling of column widths is nothing like GnuCash's. (Or
we can say GnuCash's handling of column widths is nothing like Excel's.)
Changing the width of one column or a group of columns in Excel has no
effect on the width of any other column.

To cause one or more columns to resize themselves to just contain the
data, in Excel you don't double-click on a column header as in GnuCash.
Instead you select the column(s) that you want to auto-set the width,
and then on the Home tab of the ribbon, in the Cells section, click
Format » AutoFit Column Width.
