Load the OneNote document into Aspose.Note and retrieve the list of table nodes

// Set up the document and get the list of table nodes

Step 2: Set Row Styles

Iterate through each table, setting the style for each row, including highlighting the first row after the header.

// Set row styles for each table in the document
for (Table table : nodes) {
    setRowStyle(table.getFirstChild(), Color.GRAY, true, true);
    // Highlight first row after the head.
    boolean flag = false;
    List<TableRow> rows = table.getChildren();
    for (int i = 1; i < rows.size(); ++i) {
        setRowStyle(rows.get(i), flag ? Color.lightGray : new java.awt.Color(-1, true), false, false);
        flag = !flag;
    }
}

setRowStyle Method

    private static void setRowStyle(TableRow row, Color highlightColor, boolean bold, boolean italic) {
        for (TableCell cell: row)
        {
            cell.setBackgroundColor(highlightColor);
            for (RichText node: cell.getChildNodes(RichText.class))
            {
                node.getParagraphStyle().setBold(bold);
                node.getParagraphStyle().setItalic(italic);
                for (TextRun run: node.getTextRuns())
                {
                    run.getStyle().setBold(bold);
                    run.getStyle().setItalic(italic);
                }
            }
