New to Java question

Hi,

I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction for the following:

I need to have a textfield area(or something similar) which can display different
colored background and text for each and every character in the textfield(or
a similar type area). So for example, if I have the word "Hi". I may want
the background color of the letter "H" to be blue with the actual text color
to be yellow. And I may want the letter "I" to have a background
color of red with a text color of green. I hope this is easy to
understand. Also, this text will be changing constantly depending on user
input.

Anyways I am new to Java and was hoping someone could point me in the right
direction so I don't spin my wheels forever. This is not for an applet but
rather a full Java Program.

Thanks
