Hi,

     a trick to enlarge the column width is to specify a column heading
for
     a specific column. The output gets the width of this heading if it
is
     longer than the default length of the column. Try the following
select
     statements to see the difference:


     1.)        select contact from nodes

     2.)        select contact "123456789012345678901234567890" from
nodes


     You can specify a heading for each column. If you select more than
one
     column, then you have to specify the corresponding heading for a
     column before the comma.

     Best wishes

     Matthias










     It seems as if the default column width for SELECT output is 18
     columns. Has anyone found a way to change this by column name?
