## Examples


```cpp
Aspose::Cells::Startup();
//Instantiating a Workbook object
Workbook workbook;

//Obtaining the reference of the first worksheet
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.GetWorksheets().Get(0);
Style style = workbook.CreateStyle();

//Setting the background color to Blue
style.SetBackgroundColor(Color{ 0xff, 0, 0, 0xff });

//Setting the foreground color to Red
style.SetForegroundColor(Color{ 0xff, 0xff, 0, 0 });

//setting Background Pattern
style.SetPattern(BackgroundType::DiagonalStripe);

//New Style Flag
StyleFlag styleFlag;

//Set All Styles
styleFlag.SetAll(true);

//Get first Column
Column column = worksheet.GetCells().GetColumns().Get(0);

//Apply Style to first Column
column.ApplyStyle(style, styleFlag);

//Saving the Excel file
workbook.Save(u"book1.xls");

Aspose::Cells::Cleanup();
```
