Example XojoScript:
Dim hXL As Integer
// Get Handle to newly created Excel file
hXL = XLCreateFromTemplate("myXLtest.xls")
// Set default font for Excel sheet
XLSetDefaultFont(hXL,"Arial Narrow",8)
Dim listfont As Integer = XLAddFont(hXL,"Arial Narrow",8)

Dim listformat As Integer = XLAddFormat(hXL)
Dim numberformat As Integer = XLAddFormat(hXL)
// Add font to formats
XLFormatSetFont(hXL,listformat,listfont)
XLFormatSetFont(hXL,numberformat,listfont)
// Set properties of listformat
XLFormatSetBorderBottom(hXL,listformat,"Hair")
// Set properties of numberformat
XLFormatSetAlign(hXL,numberformat,"AlignH","AlignHRight")
XLFormatSetNumFormat(hXL,numberformat,"NumformatNumberD2SepNegbraRed")
XLFormatSetBorderBottom(hXL,numberformat,"Hair")
If hXL > -1 Then
Dim i As integer
