Hi :) Ta'da!! I think Bill was asking how to keep a few rows in the middle of the spreadsheet frozen with areas above and below that could be scrolled through? if so then i don't think it's possible even in Gnumeric let alone Calc or Excel.
It is possible to freeze everywhere above and to the left of a chosen point though and that's what people have given. It is also possible to use Window - Split but again you only get 2 areas rather than 3. This way allows both the top and the bottom areas to be scrollable though. i think the Window - Freeze is best for what you seem to want. There is an extra wrinkle which is that you can scroll all the way down, before applying the freeze, so that the only rows visible on-screen are 35 and below. Then do the freeze by placing the cursor in row 41 (probably B41 so that the A column will also be frozen) and then choose Window - Freeze Of course this last way you would never be able to see anything above row 35 until you unfrozen the window but that is very trivial for people to do.
