Next, set up the three colors needed in this example; as you will see in Listing
11.14, this is quite compli cated, which is often the case when you have a large
amount of flexibility. The flexibility here is that although there are constants for
common colors such as green via the ei ght-digit hexadecimal codes that Excel
uses for colors, you can have any color under the sun. The ZDEMO_EXCEL21 program,
which comes with ABAP2XLSX, demonstrates all the colors available to
you. Each color will be represented by a GUID, which, as you’ve seen throughout
this book, is a very long string that is only understandable by a computer.
For each color, set up a style object, indicate that there will be a solid background,
and specify what color that background will be. Then, call the GET_GUID
method of the style object to turn the human-friendly instructions into something
a computer can work with. You will note that the colors are set up to be
used based on the Excel object as opposed to the worksheet object, as they can be
used in any worksheet.
