A Mac Finder question

I am sure there are some real Mac Aces on here so I wonder if there is a solution to my problem?

When clicking on the Finder Icon in the Dock with the "View" set in the "Columns" I get [from left to right]
a column with all my Devices listed and then to the right a column listing all the relevant files [which can be expanded to allow for long file names].

Are you with me so far? Good.

If I then close that particular window if I return later and reopen it the column listing the files has contracted to its original narrow width and the long filenames are once again partially obscured. This can be very annoying.

Any solution as to how I can keep the relevant column widths as desired rather than the unwanted default setting?

Thanks in advance.

I am on Lion 10.7.1 but various friends on Leopard/Snow Leopard have the same problem.
