How do I freeze panes in Excel?

Freezing panes in Excel allows you to keep specific rows and columns visible while scrolling through large data sets. This can be especially useful when working with large spreadsheets or datasets with headers that you want to keep visible. Here's how to freeze panes in Excel:

1. Open your Excel workbook and navigate to the sheet where you want to freeze panes.
2. Select the cell below and to the right of the rows and columns you want to keep visible.
3. Click on the View tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
4. Click the Freeze Panes button and select either Freeze Panes, Freeze Top Row, or Freeze First Column depending on your needs.

And that's it! Your selected rows and columns will now remain visible as you scroll through your data.

It's worth noting that you can unfreeze panes in the same way. Simply click the Freeze Panes button and select Unfreeze Panes.

Excel is a powerful tool for managing and analyzing data, and freezing panes is just one of many features that can help you work more efficiently.
