•Column Headers: formatting of columns with specific requirements
•Row Appearance: formatting for each row level of the grid, separated by even and odd rows. Each level refers to further nesting, e.g. of child tables opened within a parent table. Odd row shading for Levels 1, 2, and 3 is shown above in Figure 1.

Pertinent options within the above menus are described below:
•AlphaLevel: determines the opacity of elements (default = 0)
