Grrrrr...I asked this somewhere (probably here) before, but now can't find it and can't remember. I rarely do this... So what's the trick again? I want to freeze JUST the top row of a sheet in Excel 2003. But when I click Windows > Freeze Panes...I get a cross hair in the middle of my screen and NOT just freezing the top/selected row that I want. There was some (STUPID) trick to this. Appreciate it if someone would enlighten me about what I have to do/select to get this right. TIA... Dian D.
