David,
Set your screen font to FoxFont or Courier New. In the Command window:
_screen.fontname = 'foxfont'

>In Foxpro 2.6, if you list 4 dates and a record number from a table to print, you get them all on the left side of the page, with 1 space between the columns (unless the column headers are too long). In VFP, you get lots of space between the columns, so that the data usually wraps and you don't have a listing that you can use or give to a user. When VFP adds space between columns, it seems not to know how wide the paper or the desktop is, so it will wrap in both places when it could easily fit the data on one line. Adjusting the font with 'set printer font' doesn't stop this extra padding, although if you make your font small enough, you can control the wrapping to some extent.
