Freeze Panes

Hello

I am trying to freeze some panes vertically on the left hand side of my spreadsheet. I highlight all the columns I wish to freeze, however, it doesn't freeze them all, it stops and puts a grey line (like a page break) in the middle, and the rows below are not frozen. How can I make it so the columns freeze all the way down?

Many thanks,
Laura

RE: Freeze Panes

Hi Laura

To freeze panes vertically click in the top row one cell to the right of the columns to freeze.

Then choose View, Freeze Planes, Freeze Panes.

You may need to unfreeze panes first. Hope that does it!

Excel tip:

Colouring cells containing formulas

Cells in a worksheet can contain values or they can contain formulas. You may wish to identify all the cells in your worksheet that contain formulas by colouring those cells.

Follow these steps:
1. Choose Edit > Go To menu, or press either F5 or Ctrl+G. Excel displays the Go To dialog box.
2. Click Special. Excel displays the Go To Special dialog box.
3. Select the Formulas radio button option.
4. Select OK.

At this point, every formula cell in the worksheet is selected, and those cells can be coloured formatted as desired.
