JTable and CellRenderer to change background colors

Hi!

Quick question. I'd like to set the background color for each cell in a JTable separately. Now I've already found out that this can be done using the DefaultTableCellRenderer class, the problem is that whenever I try to set a particular cell, the entire table gets flooded with the new color, because obviously the renderer I set serves the entire table. Now how can I assign one renderer for each cell in my table or is there a more convenient way to change the background colors? In the JAVA API I have a method getCellRenderer(int row, int column), but no method that allows me to set a CellRenderer for a particular cell.

Here's my code snipplet for changing the color at position (x,y):

JTable jt = new JTable (/*blah*/);
DefaultTableCellREnderer d;
d = (DefaultTableCellRenderer)jt.getCellRenderer(x,y);
d.setBackground(Color.GREEN);


Thanks,
Chris.
