If you no longer need to keep formulas in selected cells, but want to keep the formula results, use the right-mouse button to drag the selection into other cells (or onto other cells and then back on top of themselves). Release the mouse button, and from the pop-up menu select: Copy Here as Values Only.
- [Voiceover] We're looking at a worksheet…called Split Freeze.…And in the ribbon menu system,…if you go to the view tab,…you'll see a choice called freeze panes,…and just to the right of that, split.…Freeze panes is probably the feature…you're more likely to use.…Freeze a portion of the sheet to keep it visible…while you scroll through the rest of the sheet.…Now, in this worksheet,…maybe it's one you haven't seen in a long time,…or maybe never.…You're starting to scroll downward…to look at some of the data,…and you realize that row one is not there any more.…And some of the data is pretty obvious…as to what it might be, but not everything.…
You'd like to see row one all the time.…So with row one visible, and the active cell anywhere,…we can go to this feature,…freeze panes, freeze top row.…That's it. Scroll up and down.…We always see row one.…And by the way, if we had three or four rows…up there that we wanted to see,…we could do that too.…Although in this situation here, with this data,…we wouldn't want to freeze probably anything more…
