I'm trying to freeze columns in gridview where grid has static height and all rows are rendered(no paging and scroll var is visible). I only managed to add scroll through content by overflow property,but this time all columns are scrolling as well.My task is to freeze columns while maintaining column width.

Let this be my grid

<div style="height:200px;overflow:auto;">
    <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" 
        UseAccessibleHeader="true or false">
        <Columns>
            <asp:BoundField DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" />
            <asp:BoundField DataField="Surname" HeaderText="Surname" />
        </Columns>
    </asp:GridView>
</div>

and this is code view

 public class Person
 {
     public String Name { get; set; }
     public String Surname { get; set; }
 }

->On Page Load

    List<Person> lst = new List<Person>();

    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "A", Surname = "A1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "B", Surname = "B1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "C", Surname = "C1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "D", Surname = "D1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "E", Surname = "E1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "F", Surname = "F1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "G", Surname = "G1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "H", Surname = "H1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "I", Surname = "I1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "J", Surname = "J1" });
    lst.Add(new Person() { Name = "K", Surname = "K1" });

    GridView1.DataSource = lst;
    GridView1.DataBind();

How can i achieve this with minimum effort of coding or styling?

You could use the Ideasparks CoolGridView instead. It works fine for me and is free.
