Hi Dieter, The nearest I got to was to be able to colour row. Take a look at Table 10 here:
http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/twiki/pub/Main/StatReport/latexFineControl.pdf I used the latex package colotbl (see the definition of \shadeRow in section 1). I didn't play any further with this. It might be possible that colortbl has further commands ora mechanism for colouring individual cells.
