When you work with row headers and column headers, you can work with the objects using the shortcut objects in code ([RowHeader](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.RowHeader.html) and [ColumnHeader](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.ColumnHeader.html) classes), or you can work directly with the model. Most developers who are not creating extensive customizations find it easier to work with the shortcut objects.
