Answer 1

If you mean cell’s background color, the simplest way to change it:

cell.backgroundView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];

It looks like:

- (UITableViewCell *) tableView:tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath
{
    cell = ... // dequeue or initialize cell
    switch (criteriaFromDatabase) 
    {            
        case 0:
            cell.backgroundView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
            break;
        case 1:
            cell.backgroundView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
            break;
        default:
            cell.backgroundView.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
            break;
    }
    return cell;
}
