Is there a standard process to save Excel File Formatting/Settings into an Object?

It could be cumbersome at times to maitain Excel Workbook's formatting/settings when heavy backend, front end work loads are done. At times (even frequently) workbooks were crashed. But I can't recall what the code or process was to avoid this happening due to the formatting. What I am clear is that before any data retrieval, processing took place in the workbook, I saved the Workbook's formatting/settings into an object. Once everything was completed, that object was called to restore. It was most probably one of the custom/user written classes.

That code was very handy when working with Workbooks to manage certain company standards/Logos/Colour Pallete/formatting/protection settings/code settings and so on.

So I just want to ask if anyone in the community have come across such process? I searched online and disappointing enough I am unable to find anything near - else I have really lost my wits on key-word search ;)

PS: This is not my home work or work. So please throw some light.

If you are talking about creating spreadsheets that conform to your branding standards, why don't you just create a template file:
