Is it possible to use ExcelServices webservice to format cells?
- Is it possible to use the ExcelServices web service to format a cell or a range??? Modifying the data works great now, but I'm not seeing much on working out colors, borders, etc.

- There is no direct way of doing that.
That said, you can use conditional formatting based on another cell to do this - it will be quite annoying and will not be realistic for complex formatting, but there you have it.

- I don't see any way to do this withe the Excel Services API, but you can modify the spreadsheet by using the OpenXml sdk 2.0 and re-publish it
