Translations are so much fun. "Fl=E4chen einfrieren" is "freeze area" and
"Fl=E4chen auftauen" is "defrost area"  :).

You can scroll back to the other view, though, so that's not what I want.

OK, this looks like what they're using. It also looks like OO.o and gnumeri=
c
can display things that they can't setup. The xls file I have has row 1
frozen, but nothing else. Haven't been able to get OO.o or gnumeric to do
that.

Now I know where to look, though, so mucho thankos!
