Possible to make first column float?
i have a lot of columns, each relating to a week of the year. Rather than
the user having to keep referring to the first column..is it possible to make the first column float and stick to the left side of the window regardless what cells are being worked on? steve |

Yes, you can split the window vertically and then freeze the panes.
Use Window, Split first. This will split both horizontally and vertically, so just drag the horizontal split line to the top to remove it. Drag the vertical split line to the right of column 1 (i.e where you want the split to be positioned) Use Window, Freeze Panes to fix. All columns to the right can be scrolled, leaving column A visible. Hope this helps. -- Nick "r.p.mcmurphy" wrote: i have a lot of columns, each relating to a week of the year.

Steve,
Select cell B1 pull down the Window menu on the main menu bar then select Freeze frames. Column A is then frozen in place while yoiu scroll the rest of the sheet. Hope this is what you are after. Ken Johnson |
