The WP Table get cells command returns a new cell range object containing the selection of cells in the targetObj or tableRef (defined by startCol, startRow, numCols, and numRows).
Pass either:
If targetObj does not intersect with a table or text range where a selection of cells can be retrieved, the command returns Null.
OR
If startCol plus numCols or startRow plus numRows exceeds the number of columns/rows in tableRef, or if startCol or startRow is greater than the number of columns/rows in tableRef, the returned range contains the maximum possible columns/rows.
You want to modifiy the attributes of a range of cells:
 C_OBJECT($wpTable;$wpRange;$wpRow1;$wpRow2;$wpRow3;$wpRow4;$wpRow5;$cells)
 $wpRange:=WP Create range(WParea;wk start text;wk end text)
 
 $wpTable:=WP Insert table($wpRange;wk append)
 $wpRow1:=WP Table append row($wpTable;"Paul";"Smith";25)
 $wpRow2:=WP Table append row($wpTable;"John";"Richmond";40)
 $wpRow3:=WP Table append row($wpTable;"Mary";"Trenton";18)
 $wpRow4:=WP Table append row($wpTable;"Christopher";"Lee";53)
 $wpRow5:=WP Table append row($wpTable;"Henry";"Cartier";42)
 
 $cells:=WP Table get cells($wpTable;2;2;2;2)
 WP SET ATTRIBUTES($cells;wk background color;0x00E0E0E0)
 WP SET ATTRIBUTES($cells;wk text color;"blue")
 WP SET ATTRIBUTES($cells;wk border color;0x00E000E0)
 WP SET ATTRIBUTES($cells;wk text align;wk center)Result:
