Shadow or Highlight Column in Bar Chart

Can you highlight an individual column in a Bar Chart?

Shadowing would be difficult and non-productive. You can change the
colour of an individual column by hand.

Or you can automate it by creating a new series that is zero except for
the highlighted value, and have the original series be zero only for the
highlighted value. This produces the effect of automatic "conditional
formatting".
 
Hi,

In 2007 you can add the following new enhancements to a single column

1. Bevel, Glow, Soft Edges and many more Shadow options
2. In addition you have Material and Lighting options
3. you have Join, Cap options as well as compound line choices for the borders
4. And you can create your own multi-color gradients (seems pretty difficult
to me)

But all of this is mainly eye candy - which, although I think it's cute, may
or may not be relevant to other people's work.
