I'm not sure I'm going to make sense with this question, but here it goes:

I have a spreadsheet with data on multiple subjects for multiple people. Is
there a way to freeze the window, or split the document, in multiple places
so I can see each subject and scroll through the names within each subject?

Click Window in the menu and a select New Window. I opens another copy of
the workbook and assigns the window the filename followed by a colon plus an
incremental number. Repeat as needed until you have all windows accounted
for. You can then set each window to view a different worksheet, or the same
worksheet in 2 different windows showing two different areas.

When done, click the Close Window button on the right side of the menu bar.
Repeat for each window.

Hope this helps

It sounds like you want to freeze the panes with the names in column A and
your data in columns B through whatever. Assuming you have a header row in
row 1 and your names in column A, position your cursor in cell B2 and click
Window - Freeze Panes. Now you can scroll right to your heart's content (it
is, after all, Valentine's Day), and your names will continue to show in the
leftmost column.
