Step 8. Select 1 row

By performing this operation, you have just frozen the header row of your table. In other words, when you scroll through the rows of your sheet, you always keep the row containing the table header in the same place.

  • To insert a filter in each column of your table, select the first cell at the top left of the table header. Once this cell is highlighted, click Data in the main menu of the spreadsheet. Then click on Create a filter. You now have the option of filtering the data in each column by clicking at the title of a column on the small triangle made up of 3 horizontal lines.
