The 'BackColor' property only works for the first item in the row and will
be used for all items in the row. If you set an other bacckground color for
other items, they will be ignored.

Here it doesn't color anything. When setting the UseItemStyleForSubItems to
False, only the backcolor of the subitem is changed.
 
So how does one color just one cell?

You will need to draw the items yourself (a custom drawn listview). Are you
very familiar with .NET programming?

Forget this posting. Have a look at Armin's suggestion! Shame on me.
