Yes, though it's an undocumented "feature" which suggests it may disappear. The following command freezes the headings and column titles:

TYPE=REPORT, HFREEZE=TOP, $


HFREEZE is documented to be used with HTML reports only, but I have successfully used it with EXL2K.

Just tried it - of course, it doesn't work Frowner

I haven't started using XLSX - not ready for prime time (in 8.0.08).

My offsider here also checked it out to no avail.

XLSX in general seems to work on in 8.1.04, but Report Caster doesn't support it.

Hi,

Thanks a lot Francis Smiler and Waz too.

But Iam using EXL07 and it doesn't work in 8105 version.
It works fine in EXL2K but I want EXL07?

Any workaround to make it work in EXL07 as well...Any suggestions please.

Would running an "auto_open" macro be an acceptable option? We do quite a bit of formatting this way.

Alternatively, you can use an xltx or xltm template with the correct rows frozen.
