@VeeExcelLearn Unfortunately, Freeze/Sticky columns are not released yet for normal view in lists.

 

It was targeted earlier for release in December 2021 but now the release timeline will be updated by Microsoft for this feature. Check more information at: Microsoft Lists: sticky first column - built on SharePoint 

 

However, Sticky columns are available in Quick Edit (Grid view) view of Microsoft lists: As users scroll horizontally across a list in Quick Edit mode, the far-left column remains in place - improving context while viewing and editing.

@ganeshsanap What happened to this feature? Is it still planned to be released at some point? It is much needed.

@Sandra_Abi-Khalil Here's the latest update on this feature:

Thank you for you response! Even though it's disappointing to see that they cancelled the feature, it's better to know as much at least.
