    row - representing a row to remove.
  - getRow
```
public HSSFRow getRow(int rowIndex)

    Specified by:
    
    setColumnHidden in interface Sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    columnIndex - - the column to get (0-based)
    
    hidden - - the visibility state of the column
  - isColumnHidden
```
public boolean isColumnHidden(int columnIndex)
```
    Get the hidden state for a given column.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isColumnHidden in interface Sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    columnIndex - - the column to set (0-based)
    
    Returns:
    
    hidden - false if the column is visible
  - setColumnWidth
```
public void setColumnWidth(int columnIndex,
                           int width)
```
    Set the width (in units of 1/256th of a character width)
    The maximum column width for an individual cell is 255 characters. This value represents the number of characters that can be displayed in a cell that is formatted with the standard font (first font in the workbook).
    Character width is defined as the maximum digit width of the numbers 0, 1, 2, ... 9 as rendered using the default font (first font in the workbook).
    Unless you are using a very special font, the default character is '0' (zero), this is true for Arial (default font font in HSSF) and Calibri (default font in XSSF)
    Please note, that the width set by this method includes 4 pixels of margin padding (two on each side), plus 1 pixel padding for the gridlines (Section 3.3.1.12 of the OOXML spec). This results is a slightly less value of visible characters than passed to this method (approx. 1/2 of a character).
    To compute the actual number of visible characters, Excel uses the following formula (Section 3.3.1.12 of the OOXML spec):
    width = Truncate([{Number of Visible Characters} * {Maximum Digit Width} + {5 pixel padding}]/{Maximum Digit Width}*256)/256
    Using the Calibri font as an example, the maximum digit width of 11 point font size is 7 pixels (at 96 dpi). If you set a column width to be eight characters wide, e.g. setColumnWidth(columnIndex, 8*256), then the actual value of visible characters (the value shown in Excel) is derived from the following equation: Truncate([numChars*7+5]/7*256)/256 = 8;
    which gives 7.29.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setColumnWidth in interface Sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    columnIndex - - the column to set (0-based)
    
    width - - the width in units of 1/256th of a character width
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if width > 255*256 (the maximum column width in Excel is 255 characters)

  - addMergedRegionUnsafe
```
public int addMergedRegionUnsafe(CellRangeAddress region)
```
    Adds a merged region of cells (hence those cells form one). Skips validation. It is possible to create overlapping merged regions or create a merged region that intersects a multi-cell array formula with this formula, which may result in a corrupt workbook. To check for merged regions overlapping array formulas or other merged regions after addMergedRegionUnsafe has been called, call validateMergedRegions(), which runs in O(n^2) time.
    
    Specified by:
    
    addMergedRegionUnsafe in interface Sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    region - to merge
    
    Returns:

    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalStateException - if region intersects with a multi-cell array formula

  - setForceFormulaRecalculation
```
public void setForceFormulaRecalculation(boolean value)
```
    Control if Excel should be asked to recalculate all formulas on this sheet when the workbook is opened.

```
    Shifts rows between startRow and endRow n number of rows. If you use a negative number, it will shift rows up. Code ensures that rows don't wrap around
    Additionally shifts merged regions that are completely defined in these rows (ie. merged 2 cells on a row to be shifted).
    TODO Might want to add bounds checking here
    
    Parameters:
    
    startRow - the row to start shifting
    
    endRow - the row to end shifting
    
    n - the number of rows to shift
    
    copyRowHeight - whether to copy the row height during the shift
    
    resetOriginalRowHeight - whether to set the original row's height to the default
    
    moveComments - whether to move comments at the same time as the cells they are attached to

```
 Sheet1!$A:$A
 Sheet2!$C:$F
 
```
    The CellRangeAddress returned contains a row part which spans all rows, and a column part which specifies the contiguous range of repeating columns.
    If the Sheet does not have any repeating columns defined, null is returned.
    Specified by:
    
    getRepeatingColumns in interface Sheet
    
    Returns:
    
    an CellRangeAddress containing the repeating columns for the Sheet, or null.
  - setRepeatingRows
```
public void setRepeatingRows(CellRangeAddress rowRangeRef)
```
    Description copied from interface: Sheet
    Sets the repeating rows used when printing the sheet, as found in File->PageSetup->Sheet.
    Repeating rows cover a range of contiguous rows, e.g.:
```
 Sheet1!$1:$1
 Sheet2!$5:$8
```
    The parameter CellRangeAddress should specify a column part which spans all columns, and a row part which specifies the contiguous range of repeating rows, e.g.:
```
 sheet.setRepeatingRows(CellRangeAddress.valueOf("2:3"));
```
    A null parameter value indicates that repeating rows should be removed from the Sheet:
```
 sheet.setRepeatingRows(null);
```
    Specified by:
    
    setRepeatingRows in interface Sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    rowRangeRef - a CellRangeAddress containing the repeating rows for the Sheet, or null.
  - setRepeatingColumns
```
public void setRepeatingColumns(CellRangeAddress columnRangeRef)
```
    Description copied from interface: Sheet
    Sets the repeating columns used when printing the sheet, as found in File->PageSetup->Sheet.
    Repeating columns cover a range of contiguous columns, e.g.:
```
 Sheet1!$A:$A
 Sheet2!$C:$F
```
    The parameter CellRangeAddress should specify a row part which spans all rows, and a column part which specifies the contiguous range of repeating columns, e.g.:
```
 sheet.setRepeatingColumns(CellRangeAddress.valueOf("B:C"));
```
    A null parameter value indicates that repeating columns should be removed from the Sheet:
```
 sheet.setRepeatingColumns(null);
```
    Specified by:
    
    setRepeatingColumns in interface Sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    columnRangeRef - a CellRangeAddress containing the repeating columns for the Sheet, or null.
  - getColumnOutlineLevel
```
public int getColumnOutlineLevel(int columnIndex)
```
    Returns the column outline level. Increased as you put it into more groups (outlines), reduced as you take it out of them.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getColumnOutlineLevel in interface Sheet
  - getActiveCell
```
public CellAddress getActiveCell()
```
    Return location of the active cell, e.g. A1.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getActiveCell in interface Sheet
    
    Returns:
    
    the location of the active cell.
  - setActiveCell
```
public void setActiveCell(CellAddress address)
```
    Sets location of the active cell
    
    Specified by:
    
    setActiveCell in interface Sheet
    
    Parameters:
    
    address - the location of the active cell, e.g. A1.
