Is there a way to Freeze first column and first row?

Scroll table data - this option displays the data records as a scrollable table with a fixed table header. Allow reordering of fields on the page. Drag-n-drop the columns on the List page to reorder them.

Only WORKAROUND to place COLUMN(S) where you need to see them on e.g. EDIT jobs, is to allow REORDERING OF FIELDS and to then DRAG-N-DROP columns. In general, when it comes to needs to get too many columns

per page into a better overview for users, the Youtube by Corrie de Wet seen under https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOnQsObyLDk explains on how to do it.

I think I did not explain it correctly. I wanted to ask if there is any way we can freeze the first column like in excel so that if I have in first column a date column (i have lot of fields) can I freeze it so my date column always remains visible even if I am scrolling?

PHPR does not own such functionality (yet) as it not like Excel product. I'm sorry to see that you, for some unknown reasons, do not comment on the WORKAROUND, say, to DRAG AND DROP that very COLUMN you want to see on the left, instead "wishful thinking" is honoring some suport like comments from my comments. This is giving me some concern by now whether such time investments to drill deeper into problems by others and next, to spend time to propose the max POSSIBLE. Sure, the BizWiz, namely, "PLEASE FIRST ASK FOR THE IMPOSSIBLE TO FINALLY OBTAIN AT LEAST THE MAX POSSIBLE" is practised within some commercial quarters, yet in the coding scene, other laws and tules are ruling rather than in the commerical world anyway.

Thank you much for your time. I am not a professional programmer but I now understand you gave me a solution in your first response and will try to implement. I am thankful. I will request more help if i fail to follow your instructions.

Not sure on your question but you might want to look at this. Click Here . It's a mix of what walkfly commented on and using columns value for one field to better see column value ( although it does does not scroll ) "but if you setup header scrolling it will do the job like walkfly stated" "scroll table data" columns" in page settings . Hope this helps a little.
