"Ref" column not showing all of Ref field kimer in NH 09-27-2007

In the column "Ref" in the Pay Bills screen, only part of my Ref data
that is actually entered on the Bill itself (and visible there) shows
up. Is there a way I can have it show more? If I widen the column
itself, that does nothing as far as showing more of the data there...
very frustrating to be able to enter 18 digits in the Ref field on the
Bill, but only able to see 11 of those digits in the Ref column when
in "Pay Bills"...

?? Gotta be a way! :)

The reference field is use to enter the vendor's invoice number. Ask you
vendors to go easy on the numbers.

True...however then let me ask another related ensuing question
then! :) How can I add the "memo" column to my columns in the "Pay
Bills" screen?... We have several different account numbers with same
vendors (let alone invoice numbers) for different jobs, and the
invoice numbers don't help too much when I'm trying to pay Job XX's
bill that happens to be the exact same due date & amount as Job YY.
