This is a bit hokey, but I've done it before and it does work.

  1. SET UNDERLINE OFF
Now you have no underlines at all, so you have to manually put them in where you want them.

COLUMN not_the_comment heading "Location|________"

The vertical bar in your heading should start a new line. This way you get underlines only where you want them. CAVEAT, I've never tried this technique, and at the same time tried to wrap columns to a new line like you are doing.

Hope this helps,
