Column titles
 

Hello, All!

Perhaps I have not woken up properly yet but I have a sheet that
is updated daily and there are several sets of columns derived
from the input values. I sometimes forget which columns are
which and have to go to the top of the page to find the
headings. Is there a simple way to do this? Should I perhaps
best write a macro and assign it to a button? Ideally,I would
like to see the values and the headings at the same time?

Thanks in advance.

Hi James,

Have you tried splitting the window or freezing the panes? See Window|Split and Window|Freeze Panes.

Cheers

Thanks to you and macropod! I had no idea that Freeze did that!
As I have said before, no matter how long you've been using a
program, you can always live and learn.

Thanks again!
