setCellStyle-methods.RdSets cell styles for specific cells in a workbook.
# S4 method for class 'workbook,missing,character'
setCellStyle(object,formula,sheet,row,col,cellstyle)
# S4 method for class 'workbook,missing,numeric'
setCellStyle(object,formula,sheet,row,col,cellstyle)
# S4 method for class 'workbook,character,missing'
setCellStyle(object,formula,sheet,row,col,cellstyle)The workbook to use
A formula specification in the form Sheet!B8:C17. Use either the argument formula or the combination of sheet, row and col.
Name or index of the sheet the cell is on. Use either the argument formula or the combination of sheet, row and col.
Row index of the cell to apply the cellstyle to.
Column index of the cell to apply the cellstyle to.
cellstyle to apply
Sets the specified cellstyle for the specified cell
(row, col) on the specified sheet or alternatively for the cells referred to by formula. Note that the
arguments are vectorized such that multiple cells can be styled with one
method call. Use either the argument formula or the combination of sheet, row and col.
