Freezing Panes in the Summary Window

Monarch Classic’s freeze panes feature works like the same-named feature of MS-Excel: it freezes rows and columns to keep them on screen while scrolling remains active for the rest of the Summary window. When you select the Freeze Panes command, Monarch Classic freezes all rows above the cell pointer and all columns to the left of the cell pointer.

Note: Monarch Classic does not record the names of the columns you have frozen. Instead, it records the number of columns that are frozen. A side effect of this method is that if you move a frozen column outside the frozen range, the range will expand to absorb one of the unfrozen columns, such that the number of frozen columns remains constant. Also, when you copy data that spans frozen and unfrozen columns, all of the selected data will be copied, not just the unfrozen columns.
