On an existing spreadsheet with a header, how do you premanently remove the
header?

If the header is not placed there by code, you should be able to just select the
sheet and View>Headers and Footers.

Delete the header and save the workbook.

If you want them gone from all sheets in the workbook, select all sheets before
View>Headers and Footers step.

If you are talking about deleting something from the Excel default built-in list
of headers, very little can be done.

You can change Author name in File>Properties

I followed your instructions of deleting the header and saving the workbook.
I even changed the author to my name and still the header function is there.
Maybe I've identified it incorrectly - It's rows 1 and 2 never disappear
regardless how many rows I scroll down. What do you suggest next?

I would suggest going to Window>UnFreeze Panes.

Sounds like you have rows 1 & 2 frozen.
