You can add one or more columns or rows to a sheet, and specify where the column or row is added. You can use the methods in the SheetView class or the methods in the DefaultSheetDataModel class.
Remember, if you set the cell type for the column, then inserting new rows retain the cell type for the entire column. If you set the cell type for individual cells, then inserting rows would require you to set the cell type in the new inserted rows.
For more details refer to the SheetView.AddRows method or SheetView.AddColumns method.
