You may already know this but just because you boot to a 40 or 80 column 
window does not mean you can't access a vdg 32 column screen.

What is needed is to change on the fly a window into a vdg screen as 
follows:
xmode /w# type=1 pag=16   * where # is any non initialized window
iniz /w#
shell i=/w#&

The second line above may not be needed.
