So it's just a list of fields and their values?

Just create a fex and put everything in the heading:

TABLE FILE filename
PRINT COMPANY_NUMBER NOPRINT
HEADING
"Company Number:<20><COMPANY_NUMBER"
"Customer Number:<20><CUSTOMER_NUMBER"
"Addressee Name:<20><ADDRESSEE_NAME"
and so on
BY COMPANY_NUMBER PAGE-BREAK
stylesheet stuff here
END

should do the trick. MAINTAIN doesn't really have anything to do with this one, although I suppose you could build a screen to display all of this. Way too much overkill.

As Darin says if it is all just one occurance put in a heading, if something is detail, think about headings and footings. Would be as if you were creating a letter. Output format depends on what you want to use the report for.

Maintain is a tool for 'maintaining' files, not building reports.

The other option is to use OVER

TABLE FILE filename
PRINT COMPANY_NUMBER AS 'Company Number:'
OVER CUSTOMER_NUMBER AS 'Customer Number:'
OVER ADDRESSEE_NAME  AS 'Addressee Name:'
.
.
.
etc
BY COMPANY_NUMBER PAGE-BREAK
END

You can then also use headings and footings as well.

Just to keep the number of possible answers up....(so many ways of doing things)

Try it as a fix form report.

TABLE FILE filename
BY keyfield
HEADING
"Company number.........: <COMPANY_NUMBER"
"Customer number........: <CUSTOMER_NUMBER"
"Addressee name.........: <ADDR_NAME"
...

Output can be done in fixed style (courier font) or you could use styling to make sure that the field shows in a specific position to get alignment correct as well.
