It's more in WebFOCUS 7.1 than 5.3.4, however using
PRINT XYZ AS 'X' for example will make it easier. If you have default titles such as 'Cost of Goods' that takes up more space than if you said AS 'CoG'.

This depends on which version you are working with. I recall that the total space for column titles was significantly increased with release 5.3 because while working on 5.2.6 I encountered this problem.
If you check your documentation, it should provide you with this amount.
Thanks for the help guys, but the real issue, I beleive, is the size allocation/type definition of the fields. (A2000, I11, DATE). It seems that once I have a certain number of big A2000 comment fields it decides that there is no more room. I even tried changing all of the column names to 1 letter.
I have found this problem to occur when I have 5 or more commas in the title I want displayed. Using 5.3.6 and entering a column title of 'a,b,c,d,e,f' will recreate this. I have not tested to see if using an OVER and actual data with comma's in it will end up causing the same issue. I am just throwing this out there in case anyone else runs across this. Most likely I will try to abbreviate column titles to get around this.
