Are you using HTML, PDF or EXCEL for your output format? It looks to me like you could use the last line in the header area to accomplish this.

Have you tried the last line in the header area.
Example:
HEADING
"COMPANY"
"REPORT NAME"
" "
"GENERAL EMPLOYEE INFORMATION"

Hi Marielos,
I believe this is the one you are looking for.

TABLE FILE CAR
HEADING
"TEST COMMON HEADING"
"FIRST 3 COLUMNS<+0>SECOND 2 COLUMNS"
PRINT CAR COUNTRY BODYTYPE MODEL DEALER_COST
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF,$
TYPE=HEADING,HEADALIGN=BODY,$
TYPE=HEADING,LINE=2,OBJECT=TEXT,ITEM=1,COLSPAN=3,COLOR=GREEN,$
TYPE=HEADING,LINE=2,OBJECT=TEXT,ITEM=2,COLSPAN=2,COLOR=RED,$
ENDSTYLE
END
-EXIT

Hope this helps,

For PDF, you can directly mention the column position. Like,

TABLE FILE CAR
HEADING
"TEST COMMON HEADING"
-IF &DISPFORMAT EQ 'PDF' THEN GOTO SHOWPDF ELSE GOTO SHOWHTML;
-SHOWPDF
"<1FIRST 3 COLUMNS<30>SECOND 2 COLUMNS"
-GOTO ENDSHOW;
-SHOWHTML
"FIRST 3 COLUMNS<+0>SECOND 2 COLUMNS"
-ENDSHOW
PRINT CAR COUNTRY BODYTYPE MODEL DEALER_COST
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF,$
-IF &DISPFORMAT EQ 'PDF' THEN GOTO SKIPTHIS;
TYPE=HEADING,HEADALIGN=BODY,$
TYPE=HEADING,LINE=2,OBJECT=TEXT,ITEM=1,COLSPAN=3,COLOR=GREEN,$
TYPE=HEADING,LINE=2,OBJECT=TEXT,ITEM=2,COLSPAN=2,COLOR=RED,$
-SKIPTHIS
ENDSTYLE
END
-EXIT

Hope this helps,
