    The EMPLOYEE NO. and EMPLOYEE NAME fields remain in position, and the rest of the screen display shifts right.

    It is now easy to see which insurance premium belongs to K. Wood.

    Note, however, what happened to the report title. The specified columns in the title were frozen, but the rest of the title shifted, making the title unclear.

    In the next exercise, you will freeze all displayed columns in the title line so that the title does not shift.
