One way would be to create a work file that is 170 characters wide.  Then,
load your workfile just as you would load a subfile and load your screen
(either 80 or 132 columns) by substringing the needed section of the data
from your 170 character work file.

Subject: 170 columns in a display file??????
 
Hi
 
There is a requirement where I need to display fields which occupy about 170
columns in all. I have changed the default number of columns to 132 from the
default value of 80 but I havent got the desired output. What I?m looking at
is having the default value to be 80 columns I should be able to scan
through all the fields. How can I do that?
 
Incase you haven?t understood my query to make things clear, when we use a
runqry option by pressing F19 and F20 we can move the screen to the left and
right respectively.I would be happy with some thing like that. How is that
done?
 
Thanks
