i opened a new spreadsheet, and i'm trying to utilize the 'freeze
panes' function. i'm looking to just 'freeze' the contents of the first
column ('A'), but whenever I highlight the entire first column and
select 'freeze panes,' the first couple of columns become frozen (A-H).
any advice would be greatly appreciated...
