/**
 * Various utility functions that make working with a cells and rows easier. The various methods
 * that deal with style's allow you to create your CellStyles as you need them. When you apply a
 * style change to a cell, the code will attempt to see if a style already exists that meets your
 * needs. If not, then it will create a new style. This is to prevent creating too many styles.
 * there is an upper limit in Excel on the number of styles that can be supported.
