You cannot directly set colors per column (unless it can be done at the Java level.)
The work-around is to change the column to string format, convert the numeric values to string, and wrap each string with an HTML code to change the color.
bgcols = floor(255 * [.4 .1 .1;.1 .1 .4]);
colfmtstr = sprintf('<HTML><TABLE><TD bgcolor="rgb(%d,%d,%d)"%%g', bgcols(1,:));
colcontents = cellstr( num2str(magic(10), colfmtstr) );
then make colcontents one of the columns of the data. Change the color for a different column by changing the (1,:) to (2,:)
