is it possible in MSP2k7 to make the first 2 columns stay still while I
scroll horizontally to view information in rest of the columns.
e.g.
I want to be able to see the tasks names from the left most column while I
scroll to see the Actual Work from the right most column

thanks in advance

No, you cannot lock the columns the way you can do in Excel. The only
column that is locked is the ID Number field. Hope this helps.

You can lock only the first column.
You can change what is the first column.

Following on from what Trevor has said -

You could insert a custom column (eg Text1) with a customised field and use
a formula to show both the ID & task Name. (or any other fields you choose)

Tools / Customised / Fields
select Text1
Click Formula
Enter
([ID] & " - " & [Name])
Click OK
Click OK

Use this Text1 column as Trevor states below
