Change column width in crosstab

[CognosTalk]

trying to change a single column wigth in the crosstab.
specifyed size and overflow for the overall crosstab 100%, and it is not changing the wigth when running report, only when i use white space no wrap then it is not wrapping, but i need it to wrap in specific way.
Can you kindly respond i need it ASAP!
thank you in advance,

What do you mean with wrapping in a specific way? Normal wrap behavior is done through the (first) spaces in a string.

Cognos will automatically choose its own scaling to display a crosstab. To an extend you can add crosstab spaces to the crosstab, add string of a certain length and then hide this by matching the foreground color with the background one.

it still does not work, i specify the desired format, but there is no use, it is wrapping in 3 lines, i need it to wrap at 2. it shows nicely when i set it up, but when running it still does not give me the desired format
