Question: In Microsoft Excel 2007, I have a spreadsheet with column headings. I need to freeze the first row and also freeze the first column. That way, I can see the first row and first column at all times even when I scroll. How can I do this?

Answer: If you need to see the first column (column A) and first row (row 1) even after scrolling, you could try freezing the pane in Excel.

NOTE: Freezing panes only works when you are in Normal View.

To freeze the first row and column, open your Excel spreadsheet.

Select cell B2. Then select the View tab from the toolbar at the top of the screen and click on the Freeze Panes button in the Window group. Then click on the Freeze Panes option in the popup menu.

Now when you scroll, you should still continue to see row 1 and column A.
