Default How to Feeze A?


Is there an easy way I can freeze A column and the B column so they will
not move when I move the screen over from left to right? Lets say I type in
"Cubs" in cell A1. When I move the screen over it disappears. Any way I
can make it stay there? Also, any way I can make column B stay too?

Much thanks!

I think I can freeze A. Is there a way to say freeze column A and column
C but not B?

Thanks!

I can freeze A, A and B, but is there a way to freeze A and C and not B?
I can't give an example really. One of my bosses came up to me last night
and said she could freeze one column but not two. I told her I would look
into it. I'm not sure she wants to freeze column A and C. I was just
thinking it would be cool if I could go in there and show here how.

You have already been told you cannot freeze A and C without freezing B.

You could hide B and freeze A to C

Is there a way to freeze the top row and first column?

Make sure A1 is visible (select it to make sure)
Now select B2.
Then freeze the window

Every row above the activecell and every column to the left of the activecell
will be frozen.

Hmm, maybe I'm doing it wrong. I select B2 and hit freeze. The only
thing that is frozen is A1.

Did you scroll down far enough to see that row 1 remained visible?

Did you scroll far enough to the right to see that column A remained visible?

I've never seen a single cell be the only thing frozen.

My mistake. It does work. I'm on a tight time schedule. It seems to work
now. Thanks.
