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".
