Would anyone know how to add color in selected columns for a table with subcolumns?

In other words, for the image below, I would like to color in the 2nd and 3rd columns (clustered and cured OR & P-value) as well as the 6th and 7th column (Non-clustered and Cured OR & P-value). I tried using 

rowcolor{black}\multicolumn{9}{}

but the attempts I tried from other help pages did not seem to help. Any help or hints would be greatly appreciated again. Thanks!

for coloring of columns is intended macro from colortbl package (loaded by beamer): >{\columncolor{gray!10}}d{...}, but before you should solve more issue in table design and appearing of coloring in column. i sugest to solve this step by step.

1. step:

  • reformat table in which omit use of @{\extracolsep{\fill}}
  • determine size of tabcolsep
  • reformat size of columns (that contents not spill out of cell border)
  • increase space for table with macro adjustwidth from package changepage
  • replace \begin{tabular*}{\textwidth}{...} with \begin{tabular}{...}

2. step:

  • define own color name with \colorlet{mycol}{gray!10} (you can change color name) for coloring column with this the colors in columns (and cells) is central controlled ans easily changeable
  • define new commands for coloring local column heading: \newcommand\mcc[1]{\multicolumn{1}{c}{\cellcolor{mycol}{#1}}}
  • replace commands \mc{...} with \mcc{...} accordingly (in colored columns)

3. step:

  • in case, that you like to remove white space above and below horizontal rules, then you had to add into preamble

\setlength\aboverulesep{0pt}
\setlength\belowrulesep{0pt}

and after \setlength\tabcolsep{1pt}

   \renewcommand\arraystretch{1.3}

after this changes you will obtain:

  • @rich, any news?

  • This is what I was looking for! Thanks. I think it was the creation of two multicolumn - one with and without cellcolor command that was throwing everything off for me before as well as the tabular* and tabular distinction. Anyways, thank you so much!

  • did the code above compile correctly for you? It seems that there is a problem with the \mc when I made the adjustments as suggested, @Zarko?

  • @rich, ups ... i find now, that i didn't copy recent version of my code and that in the provided are missing last two lines :-(. corrected now. i also add third step in this table (re)design. maybe you like it :)

    Sep 6, 2017 at 14:16
  • yeah, the new code/ design works well =) Fiddling around with the table size/design can be quite confusing in my opinion compounded with the multicolumns, @Zarko. Anyways, thanks for your help!
