[moneydance] How to alter width of "last column" in MD

[Doug B]

I'm a little uclear on what you want for a final outcome.

If you want a full screen with better proportioned columns, you can 
adjust the far right column by dragging on its left border.  This will 
increase the size of the column to the left, but just adjust them all 
until you have the proportions you like.

Is full screen is just too much desktop for you (too far from the far 
left column to the far right column causing a lot of eye movement to 
read)?  Just set the MD desktop to the size you want, then ajust the 
columns to give you the proportions you want.  Again, drag the left 
vertical line to the right in the far right column until its where you 
want it then size the others to please.
