1) Change your "Style Mode" to "Advanced" - this options is in Document Properties / General
2) Turn on "Design Grid"
2) Right-Click the column header and format it using Custom Format Cell

The solution given by Jagan Mohan and Ravi Achaliya is right i.e using Custom Format cell we can change background color of a column name

That's nice but what if I want to change the background color of only one column name?

In the "Custom format cell" there is a box "Apply change to: All Dimensions" and there is no other option if I want to change just the header...
