Question About How To Make Cells As Headers - Excel

View Content
Hi everyone, would appreciate if someone can point out to me how to do this simple thing.

I don't know how to word it properly, but I remember Excel can take a row of cells and just fix them, such that when you scroll up or down, that row of cells will always stay at the top, sort of like a heading (if that's the right word).

How would I go about doing this? Oh and I am using MS Excel 2000.

Thank you!

How Can I Make Working Microsoft Office Spreadsheet 11.0 Control In Excel 2007 - Excel

View Content
Hi,
I built some applications using Excel with Userforms containig Web Components like Spreadsheet 11.0 and Chartspace 11.0 with Excel 2007, and installed OWC11. Recently I started to use a new computer, freshly installed Office 2007 Enterprise. After installing the OWC11, I was bedly hit, then the applications running well in the same environment on other machines are causing ClassFactory error 80040111. After many attempts trying uninstalling and reinstalling the OWC11 without any success, I tried to build a new application, containing an userform. In order to be able to add the above mentioned two component, I added them to the Toolbox. But... I could put the chartspace on the form, but attempting do the same with the Spreadsheet control caused error ClassFactory cannot serve the required class (this is a translation of the error message, may be the original english is somewhat different). What can be the cause of the problem resulting in that some parts of the same dll are operating fine, but some of them are causing error?

Can anybody help me to work around this problem?
