Question: In Microsoft Excel 2003/XP/2000/97, I have a spreadsheet and I need to freeze the first column. That way, I can see the 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) even after scrolling, you could try freezing the pane in Excel.
To freeze the first column, open your Excel spreadsheet.
Select cell B1. Then under the Window menu, select Freeze Panes.
Now when you scroll, you should still continue to see column A.
