Freezing a Pane
Freezing a pane enables you to keep a range
of cells onscreen while you scroll the rest of the cells. For example,
you might want to keep the spreadsheet’s header rows onscreen while you
view data farther down the spreadsheet. You can freeze a portion of the
spreadsheet by following these steps:
1. Tap and hold a cell in the column that you want to freeze.
2. Tap Freeze Pane.
3. The thicker line on the Excel grid indicates which column is frozen.
Unfreezing Cells
When you decide to unfreeze the cells, you
can do so by tapping and holding a cell above the freeze line and then
tapping the Unfreeze Pane option.
