Freeze Panes - Why not twice?

[Sorry about the mis-post earlier]

Hi,

I'm just wondering if & HOW it is possible to freeze panes in TWO locations.
I have a very simple (but long) table in the following (simplified) form:

Title       Title       Amount
---------------------------------
Data        Data        number
Data        Data        number
Data        Data        number
Data        Data        number
Data        Data        number
Data        Data        number
 .           .           .
 .           .           .
 .           .           .
 .           .           .
----------------------------------
TOTAL                   number (SUM)
==================================

The pane is presently frozen below the 'title / amount' row for clarity's
sake.  Howver, ideally I would like the 'TOTAL' row also to be frozen so
this is also visible on screen at all times - meaning the only rows that
scroll are the 'Data....number' rows (between the title & total rows that
would remain visible & fixed).

It seems that 2 freezes are not possible, OR a freeze and a split?

Can this be done?

Any help greatly appreciated (and sorry if the example isn't clear...I'd be
glad to elaborate).

TIA.

Cheers,

Jason

Probably not very elegant but  maybe you could put the totals at the top of the
columns instead of the bottom.   I've done this lots of times and it seems to
solve the problem for me.
