The first CreateFreezePane method overload take column and row amount to create freeze pane based it. For example, workSheet.CreateFreezePane(1, 4) will make freeze pane from column(A) and row(1-4).
CreateFreezePane(column, row, subsequentColumn, subsequentRow)
This overload create freeze pane based on the column and row amount provided as well as apply scrolling to the worksheet. For example, workSheet.CreateFreezePane(5, 2, 6, 7) will have freeze pane from column(A-E) and row(1-2) with 1 column and 5 row scroll. When the worksheet is first open it will show column A-E,G-... and the row will show 1-2,8-...
