A follow up question, is there a simple way to limit the width of
the columns to a maximum of characters?  I tried SELECT *=25  but
that doesn't have any effect.

Hans,

At least two options:

01. Specify each column with =nnn

    Example:

    BROWSE LastName=20,FirstName=20,CompanyName=30 FROM ...

02. Use the "Table Layout" option to customize individual table
    and columns with everything you can imagine.

    LAYOUT settings must be ON in order to save all settings.

    HELP LAYOUT should reveal everything you need to know.

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
