So i have a data-grid with over 20 columns, meaning that i will have to scroll to see the other columns, and when writing to the data-grid i would like to see whose data i am writing on, and compare with other rows, so is there a way i can freeze or somehow lock the first few columns? or are there any workarounds for this kind of problem?

Hide all colums and only show the columns you wish to work with.
