Step 2: Click the View menu, select Freeze Panes > Freeze Top Row (in case you want to fix the top row )

Step 3: If you want to permanently add the first column, select Freeze First Column

Step 4: To cancel the fixed boxes, just click Unfreeze Panes and you 're done

Split Multiple Views

Split the viewing area to help you scroll the mouse wheel to see each part individually. It is very useful for large spreadsheets that you need to operate on multiple areas at once.

Before you can place the mouse pointer under the fixed row then click on the Split tool in the View menu. Immediately the screen will split into two parts, you can operate independently on both parts.

To return to the original state, just click the Split icon again.
