How do I "Freeze Panes" or split my data editor window in SPSS Statistics?

Question & Answer


Question

Is it possible to set up just a vertical pane splitter without getting a horizontal splitter at the same time? The SPSS Help has the instructions below, but this method seems to always produce both vertical and horizontal page splitters. I only want the vertical one. _________________________ In Data View, you can create multiple views (panes) by using the splitters that are located above the horizontal scroll bar and to the right of the vertical scroll bar. You can also use the Window menu to insert and remove pane splitters. To insert splitters: In Data View, from the menus choose: Window Split Splitters are inserted above and to the left of the selected cell. If the top left cell is selected, splitters are inserted to divide the current view approximately in half, both horizontally and vertically. If any cell other than the top cell in the first column is selected, a horizontal pane splitter is inserted above the selected cell. If any cell other than the first cell in the top row is selected, a vertical pane splitter is inserted to the left of the selected cell.
