When you're making a report, how do you place a variable onto a column line?

Example:

Table file XYZ
Print FieldA as 'qwerty'
end

Instead, I want to see
Table file XYZ
Print FieldA as &variblename,'Restof col'
end

Any help is greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

Just move the amper variable name (and the comma if you want the title on two lines) inside the quotes.
