Column width

Enter the width you want this field to be. You can set this width between 0 and 99 characters. As you determine the width you need for each column remember to also consider the width you need for the heading.

For example, if you have the heading Landed Purchase Discount, you should set the column width to a minimum of 24 so that the heading is not cut off. If you want extra space on either side of the heading, you could increase the width to 28. If the total-column width exceeds the entry/receiving window width, a horizontal scroll bar will appear.
