    Lock specific rows while inserting new rows

    Is it possible to lock rows 1-2, and 25-26 in place while allowing the user to insert new rows elsewhere?

    New rows must be created in order to add new data. But rows 1-2 and 25-26 are at the top of the page when printed, though they are not actual "headers".

    Currently, adding a new row anywhere between 2 and 25 will shift 25 and 26 downward, whereas, I need them to remain in place for printing purposes (so they will remain at the top of the printed page).

    Please see my sample as i think you will clearly see what I am asking:

    Go in cell 'A25', click on Insert menu and then on 'page break'.-

    Now you can insert rows without problems.

    Not working.

    I had to go to "page break preview", then right-click column 25 to "insert page break".

    But then i inserted a row above column 25 and it shifted column 25-26 down to 26-27.

    Is there another step involved that is being overlooked? I need new rows that will insert above row 25, while pushing the one just above 25 just below row 26.

    edit: i'm using excel 2007 is that helps.
