Which applies to *all* columns, not individual ones.

What is this "of course" bit? There is no "of course."
If you mean resizing with the mouse - of course I tried that.
It didn't work.
The little double-headed arrow displayed but the column wouldn't resize.
I wouldn't have asked the question if the answer were so obvious.
After reading your response I thought I would, just for kicks, try
again with the mouse. This time it worked - a couple of times. Then
it stopped. Why? I have no clue. I'm doing exactly the same thing.
Does your left toe have to be pointing a certain direction?
And I never got the extreme right hand column to resize.
