I want a table to travel with the scroll.

I have two tables, side by side.
After I enter data in t1, I have to enter data in t2.

Table 1: A1:H91
Table 2: J1:k49

As I move downward in table 1, I want table 2 to move with my scroll, so when I need to enter data in that table, it is right there, and I don't have to constantly scroll all the way up to enter it.

So, where ever my scroll is, my cursor, I want t2 to be at my right, centered in the screen.

I realize that I can accomplish some of this by just splitting the screen in the middle, but I don't like looking at the screen that way for too long.
I thought there might be something cooler.
Is this possible?

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
Two simple-enough solutions occur to me. Perhaps others will think of better ones.

1. You could put your table onto another sheet, then use the View choices to view the two sheets side-by-side. That way, the table on, say, Sheet2 would remain where it is while data is entered on Sheet1, for example, and updates the table.

2. This one is a bit more complex, and I haven't used it myself, so I'm not sure how the mechanics of it would work, but under the View choices you can create a new copy of the existing workbook. That is, the entire workbook. So you could arrange the view of the workbooks side-by-side and make changes in one while the view of the same worksheet shows in an adjoining window. You can also save the multiple-copy arrangement as an .xlsb file, so that when you open up the file, both copies of the workbook open together.

That might get you started on a better solution, anyway.
