Hi Raj, I am new to lightning component..I have created a table with fixed headers...I want the scrollbar to scrll down the rows in the table keeping the headers fixed....but now i am having a scrollbar in my browser ..So my question is how to remove that scrollbar which is in the browser and instead of that add a scrollbar only for the table ?

Hello Amrita,

Include your lightning:dataTable component within a dev tag with height style like below

<div style="height: 500px">
      // <your dataTable component>
</div>

change the height to the required px.

Please mark this as Best answer if this what you are looking for or let us know if any other info needed. 

If you dont want to use other HTML tags and just want to use the native lightning components, you can make use of infinite scrolling of lightning dataTable. Let me know if you need help on that.

Hi lokesh,
I am using only <table> tag and not data table...And the height is not making any difference.
