You might try this, xHarbour.org , assuming that it will compile and run on HP-UX.
Here is the source code for your request.
Code:
create temp                        
append blank                       
replace field_name with "text"     
replace field_type with "C"        
replace field_len with 75          
replace field_dec with 0           
close temp                         
create text from temp              
append from t.prg sdf              
go top                             
heading1="For our first report"    
heading2="Name Addresss Invoice No"
@1,40-len(heading1)/2 say heading1 
@2,40-len(heading2)/2 say Heading2 
browse( 3,5,14,70)
