ATTRIBUTES

       •   NAME

           This is the name of the worksheet to be added.

       •   PROTECT

           If the attribute exists, it will mark the worksheet as being protected. Whatever value
           is set will be used as the password.

           This activates the HIDDEN and LOCKED nodes.

       •   KEEP_LEADING_ZEROS

           This will change the behavior of the worksheet to preserve leading zeros.

       •   HIDE_GRIDLINE

           his method is used to hide the gridlines on the screen and printed page.  Gridlines
           are the lines that divide the cells on a worksheet. Screen and printed gridlines are
           turned on by default in an Excel worksheet. If you have defined your own cell borders
           you may wish to hide the default gridlines.

           $worksheet->hide_gridlines();

           The following values of $option are valid:

               0 : Don't hide gridlines
               1 : Hide printed gridlines only
               2 : Hide screen and printed gridlines

           If you don't supply an argument or use undef the default option is 1, i.e. only the
           printed gridlines are hidden.

       •   LANDSCAPE

           This will set the worksheet's orientation to landscape.

       •   PORTRAIT

           This will set the worksheet's orientation to portrait.

           While this is the default, it's useful to override the default at times. For example,
           in the following situation:

             <workbook landscape="1">
               <worksheet>
                 ...
               </worksheet
               <worksheet portrait="1">
                 ...
               </worksheet
               <worksheet>
                 ...
               </worksheet
             </workbook>

           In that example, the first and third worksheets will be landscape (inheriting it from
           the workbook node), but the second worksheet will be portrait.

       •   AUTOFILTER

           With these attribute, you can add the autofilter to a worksheet. An autofilter is a
           way of adding drop down lists to the headers of a 2D range of worksheet data.  This is
           turn allow users to filter the data based on simple criteria so that some data is
           shown and some is hidden.

           Example to add an autofilter to a worksheet:
               <workbook>
                 <worksheet autofilter='A1:D11' />
                 <worksheet autofilter='0, 0, 10, 3' />
               </workbook>

       worksheet.
