Thanks Daniel.
I have looked at the link. It will require me to create a new
environment which I was hoping to avoid.
I have tried and can create the new environment successfully, however,
it looks ugly with all the ERT I have to use.
Perhaps, I can create the new environment in a local layout. I have
written a local layout for an itemized list before.
How would it differ from a description list?
I have attached a file below which contains my local layout.
Warm Regards,
Anthony

Dear Anthony,
I am not sure that it is possible to adjust the width of the label
automatically. Have you tried any of these instead?
