Continuation

You can continue the text of a heading on three lines at most. This is done by typing a semicolon after the last character of the field name. For example, assume the following three‑line heading is defined for the column OPEN$:

Outstanding
Amount Owed
By Customer

This is specified as the following:

 000900  CUSTOMER.OPEN$;           U __ ___ /Outstanding/Amount Owed/___________
 001000  _________________________ _ __ ___ By Customer_________________________

Notice the semicolon after the column name, CUSTOMER.OPEN$. The slashes used as delimiters cause the heading itself to print on multiple lines.
