RE-OPENING CLOSED DISCUSSION -- Column widths in reports malfunctioning
This discussion was opened in Aug 2023, closed Oct 2023 WITHOUT RESOLUTION.
Here are some of the comments:
In my "itemized categories" monthly spending report, after I've adjusted the column widths to fit the field lengths, and then once I change a payee name or memo description or recategorize a transaction, the app automatically adjusts the column widths, widening some, narrowing others. So, every time I make a change to a transaction on the report, I have to readjust the column widths.
Me too. Exactly my experience over the same time frame. I even re-created my itemized expense report which has yearly subreports going back to 2010 as well as monthly reports for the current year. Same result. There's no reason for the CLR or TAG columns be much larger than the MEMO column. It's very, very, very frustrating. Sometimes I really hate Quicken, but unfortunately, it's all we got.
I have the same problem with the columns readjusting every time I make a change. Even on the initial report the columns are out-of-whack. The TAG, CLEAR, NUMBER columns are large and the important DESCRIPTION and MEMO are truncated. So I have to adjust all the columns to create a readable report and then if I make one change all the columns revert back to the unreadable.
I've complained about this problem for the 30 years I've been using Quicken……………
