# HW - Heading Width

With this session parameter you determine the width of a column output with a `DISPLAY` statement.

Possible settings | `ON` | The width of a `DISPLAY` column is determined by either the length of the heading text or the length of the field, whichever is longer. Note This is true even if no heading text is output, either because the `DISPLAY` statement contains the keyword `NOHDR` or the `DISPLAY` statement is a subsequent `DISPLAY` (see also the `DISPLAY` statement).
`OFF` | The width of a `DISPLAY` column is determined by the length of the field. Note `HW=OFF` only applies to `DISPLAY` statements which do not create headers (that is, either a first `DISPLAY` statement with `NOHDR` option or a subsequent `DISPLAY` statement).
Default setting | `ON` |
Specification within session | yes |
Applicable statements | `DISPLAY` `FORMAT` |
Applicable command | none |
