Default how to "freeze panes" for a vertical column?

I've been able to "freeze panes" for horizontal rows, so the column headings
stay in place as I scroll down. But when I also try to "freeze panes" for
vertical columns, so the row headings will stay in place, after I select the
column to freeze, the only choice I have is "unfreeze panes".

Is this because you can't do both horizontal and vertical freezes on the
same spreadsheet. Or is there a different way to accomplish this?

You need to set both at once! So then, to freeze cols/rows at B2 so colA and
row1 do not scroll, select B2 and 'Freeze Panes'!

Thanks, that worked. I had to unfreeze the horizontal rows first, then it
was ok.

Glad to help!

Yes, any time you want to change this you must first 'Unfreeze' any existing
state then re-apply the 'Freeze' to your new selection.
