6 Freezing Panes Allows the user to work in multiple areas of a large spreadsheet and focus the view on specific cell ranges. Freezing Panes allows the row and/or columns labels or titles to remain stationary on the screen while you scroll. Examples: (1) John arranged his spreadsheet so that he could view the cell range B1:B10 and Row 3 while he worked in cells on Row 180. He would Freeze the Panes so he could see Row 3 and Row 180 at the same time. (2) If Sue wants to keep rows and columns visible so they don’t scroll off the screen as she moves around on the worksheet, she would use the Freeze Panes operation.
