AnIEnumerable
collection to use as the data source.
colNames

Must be specified, but the DataBindingProperties
need not be set beforehand. To bind data to a template with the default DataBindingProperties
, pass in ExcelTemplate.CreateDataBindingProperties()

method to generate a new DataBindingProperties
object and set the DataBindingProperties.MaxRows, DataBindingProperties.Transpose, and/or DataBindingProperties.WorksheetName properties for the workbook.
