Repeat Heading Row Every Nth Row in Excel

Working with huge datasets in Excel has you continuously scrolling back up to check column headers? Do you find it difficult to remember which columns contain what data as you scroll down the rows? We have a solution for you, so don't be afraid! This lesson will walk you through the process of having Excel repeat the header row every nth row, which will make it simpler to navigate your data and keep context.

In Excel, the heading row typically contains labels that describe the contents of each column. When working with lengthy datasets, the column headers may become invisible as you scroll down, making it challenging to comprehend the data accurately. By repeating the heading row at regular intervals, you can maintain a clear understanding of the information in each column, regardless of where you are in the spreadsheet.
