Display selected master table columns on detail page

When I select (in the Datasource Table) to display master table information on the detail page, is there a way to only display selected master table columns? I do not want all of them to be shown, just a few.
I was able to remark out a column in xxx_masterlist.php but that only removed the varilable & not column position or heading.

On the visual editor, right click on the column you dont want and select delete columns.
I think thats what you mean.

I don't think so.
On the visual editor for the Detail table, above the link "Back to Master Table" is an area which will display the row from the Master table that was previously selected. In in this area the only thing that appears on the visual editor is one cell containing the words "Master Table Info".
When you run the application, there is a master table row displayed, above the "Back to Master Table" link on the Detail Table display that displays every column that was on the Master Table row that ws previously selected. I want to know how to keep some of those columns from appearing.
Again, this has to do with selecting the "display master table information on the detail page" option on the "Detail" area section of the Datasource Table.

Hi,
just select Master table info (List page) of master table on the Visual Editor tab and remove unnecessary columns.

Well . . . if it was a snake, it would have bit me.

I was making this a lot harder than I should have & the answer was right under my nose all the time.

Many thanks to you and swanside; you are both very much appreciated.
