Anyone here good with Excel?

Simple Excel question:

My Row 1 has all the headers I need for the whole file, and it scrolls down quite a ways, hiding the first row when I scroll down far enough. How do you "sticky" it to the top, even when you scroll far far down, it'll just be at the top of the sheet?

TIA!

Place the cursor where you want to freeze the "panes" and then go to:

Window >> Freeze Panes

Sweet! Only problem is that I have half of my screen filled in, and it's keeping the whole half frozen and scrolling the bottom half. I need it to scroll everything but the top. I selected all of Row 1 to freeze, but maybe I should have selected one cell or something else just to get the first row to stay?

Rather than Freeze, use Window > Split and then drag the top window pane to an appropriate size.

Select the row below row 1 and do freeze panes.
