| Returns the column's 0-based index. | |
| Sets or returns whether or not the column will be hidden when the workbook is opened in Excel. | |
| Sets or returns whether the column's outlined column group is collapsed. If the outline is collapsed, the column is hidden. | |
| Sets or returns the outline level of the column, as a value between 0 and 7. The outline level is used to control grouping in Excel. For example, to group several columns, set their outline levels to 1; to group a subset of columns within the group, set their outline levels to 2. | |
| Returns 'padding' (in characters) that needs to be added to the column width (in characters) to get true width of this column. | |
| Sets or returns a Style object that determines how cells in the column look, including number format, font, orientation, etc. | |
| Sets or returns the width of the column in points (1/72 of an inch). | |
| Sets or returns the width of the column as a number of '0' characters in the font of the 'Normal' style. This must be a value between 0 - 255. |

|---|---|
| Applies a style to the column. When a style is applied - rather than set (see ColumnProperties.Style ) - only the differences between the new style and style properties previously assigned to the column (through the ExcelWriter API or in Microsoft Excel) will take effect. For example, if a cell in the column has a background color and the new style applied does not contain a background color, the cell's color will not be affected. | |
| Automatically sets the width of the column to the width of the widest cell value in the column. |
