Split Windows

A sheet window can be spilt into sections called panes to make it easier to view different parts of the sheet at the same time. The panes can consist of any number of columns of rows along the top or left edge of the window. We can divide the sheet into two panes either horizontally or vertically, or into four panes if we split the windows both vertically and horizontally.

Each pane can be scrolled independently to display different areas of the sheet. Panes are most useful for viewing a worksheet that consists of different sections. Creating panes allows we to display the different sections of the worksheet in separate panes and then to quickly switch between panes to access the data in the different sections without having to repeatedly scroll to the areas.
