Thread Subject: Controling colors of columns in a bar graph

Hi All,
I am using the bar command to display matrix values in a bar
graph, and I'd like to find a way to control the color that
is assigned to each column in the matrix, e.g., I have a
matrix that its size is 100x20, thus after calling
bar(myMatrix) i get a bar graph with 20 bars for each bin.
I'd like that the first bin will be red, the second blue
and so on. Is there a way to specify for each column in a
bin its color?

thanks
Yoav

h = bar(rand(5,10));

set(h(1),'FaceColor','r')

or

set(h(1),'FaceColor',[1 0 0])
