In Excel 2016 I know how to freeze the first column or the first row through the menu View -> Freeze Panes.
But how can I simultaneously freeze both the first column and the first row?
When I apply one of them it removes the other one.
How can I freeze any column or row not the first ones?
#gravity, this is your suggestion:
I don't have that option.
If you select cell B2, and under "View," choose "Freeze Panes," the first column AND row will be frozen simultaneously.
Expanding upon this, if you choose the upper-left most, singular cell, that you do not want to be frozen, and choose freeze panes, all panes above and to the left of that single cell are frozen.

I would like to freeze multiple rows in the below work sheet so that when I scroll downwards I have the corresponding topics listed below the alphabetical header.
Is this possible and how can I achieve it?
You can freeze all rows and columns left and above a cell. In order to do that, just select that cell, type freeze in the help bar and you'll get the possibility.
E.g. if you select cell "D8" and you press "freeze", then the three most left columns and the first seven rows will be frozen.
In addition to a single cell, Excel allows you to select multiple unconnected cells independently by pressing ctrl when clicking the cells.
I use this feature to insert a row between each existing row, which is my ultimate goal. You can do this by independently selecting one cell in each row and then right-clicking and inserting rows.
This process works fine for tens of rows, but in some cases, I need to independently select 1000+ cells in a column to insert a row between each row in a large sheet. To be clear, I'm not talking about ranges. Instead of A1:A1000, I mean to select A1,A2,A3...A1000.
Is this possible without manually clicking each cell?
Insert a helper column with even numbers this way
type the value 2 into the first row
type the value 4 into the second row
select the two cells and double click the fill handle to fill down to the last row of your data or drag to the desired point.
Below your data, in the same column, enter odd numbers 1,3,5,etc, using a similar technique.
Next, sort your data by the new column.
Viola! Blank rows between all rows of data.
How do I freeze particular column in excel sheet ?
Example : I want to freeze column J for entire worksheet.
I have gone through many solutions but they only talks about column A. but I want to freeze other columns except Column A.
Try selecting J,1 then View->Freeze Panes->Freeze Panes
The Freeze Panes option always freezes the top left corner of a selected cell
How do I freeze a select row? In my case I want row 5 to be the header that I see when scrolling down except there is only options for row 1. How do I get around this?
Top row and first columns are not what I desire.

Select the row below the one you want to freeze. Then in the Freeze Panes selection instead of choosing Top Row or First Column choose Freeze Panes. So in your example select the entire row 6 and then select Freeze Panes.
I am looking to freeze the panes in an excel worksheet so that :
the top 10 rows and the left most 4 columns are frozen, i.e. only the bottom right portion of the worksheet moves.
I have tried using the split function but i don't want the data to be duplicated on the screen if someone moves right to the top or the left.
Unfreeze Panes if they are frozen
Select E11 (11th row and 5th column)
Freeze Panes!
