Attached is an example of a TOC item on the group and on the order
number. Just edit the group to see the expression. On the order number
look at the TOC property.

Chaffs,

I don't know a simple way of applying all style elements at once at
runtime, but you can change the properties you describe individually by
using this.getStyle().fontFamily=".." .backgroundColor=".." etc. Take a
look at the report scripting page.
