As an example, If you want to print the top two rows of the sheet as well as the first column (A)on all pages, do the following: 1. Choose Format - Print Ranges - Edit. The Edit Print Ranges dialogue box appears. 2. Click the icon at the far right of the Rows to repeat area. The dialogue box shrinks so that you can see more of the sheet. 3. Select the first two rows and, for this example, click cell A1 and drag to A2. In the shrunken dialogue box you will see $1:$2. Rows 1 and 2 are now rows to repeat. 4. Click the icon at the far right of the Rows to repeat area. The dialogue box is restored again. 5. If you also want column A as a column to repeat, click the icon at the far right of the Columns to repeat area. 6. Click column A (not in the column header). 7. Click the icon again at the far right of the Columns to repeat area. Rows to repeat are rows from the sheet. You can define headers and footers to be printed on each print page independently of this in Format - Page. === end quote === -- Harold Fuchs London, England -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** Ahah, i thought this question ambiguous. It could be about 1. Printing (neatly solved by Harold Fuchs and something i didn't know. Excel does this in "Page Set-up") 2. Onscreen For Onscreen just click on any cell then go up to the menus and click on Window - Freeze Then try scrolling up&down or side-to-side to see the effect. Then unfreeze and set the freeze corner exactly where you need it. Good luck and regards from Tom :) -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
