Jim:

I had the wrong object.  I was using the worksheet objXLS instead of the
application objXLApp.  

This worked:

    objXLS.Rows("2:2").Select
    objXLApp.ActiveWindow.FreezePanes = True


Thanks for all the input.

Rocky

Rocky,

If you set an freezepane on row 2 and an autofilter on row 1, you can lock a
value in column 1 with the autofilter which is sorta like what you are
trying to do.
