Description j.gnome 2005-01-09 03:24:50 UTC 
1. New workbook
2. Type "a" in A1, C1 and F1
3. Select all (ctrl-a)
4. Change font to Serif
5. Save as test.xls
6. Reopen test.xls

Only columns A, C and F have the right font: the font should be Serif in every
cell of the workbook.

Same for, say, painting the background red.  Just a bit more visible...

doh!  I was using colinfo == NULL to mark the first col in the exporter, but
forgot that NULL is used internally to mark unused columns with no hiding or
outlining.
