Creation of some Read-only columns or read-only cells

[siddhu741]

First of all, Great library and a very useful one.
Sometimes, there is a need to make some columns of the worksheets non-editable.
can anyone throw some light on whether its possible to create such columns using the existing library?

As far as I've been able to determine, this is not currently possible. However, given that locking a cell is done by setting a simple flag on the cell, this shouldn't be too complex to add support for. I'd love to have this feature as well - something like worksheet->getCell(A1)->locked = true;

According to PR #166 it seems that this is a currently unknown attribute type - perhaps a more general update would be to allow you to set any attribute type for a cell by providing the attribute name and value.
