Controlling Table Column visibility through Program

Question

Hi Experts
We have custom WD Java applications developed in NW 7.0 which we have now migrated to NW 7.3.
The visibility property of the columns are bound to the Context attributes. In the application, we are controlling the visibility of the Table columns by setting the values of context attributes.
However, i could see that even though the visibility property is set as "NONE", by printing it on screen, those particular columns are visible.
Am I missing something?? Do we need to take care of something or is any other property needs to be set??
Thanks in advance..
Regards,

OK, starting at the lowest level is getting the column selected, since we need to select the correct column
before selecting the first cell in the column to rename (a separate funciton?) and then the remaining cells
in the column (another function)? Once these two functions are done, the rest would be like the example in the
the Frame book, since then you would have a function select only the tables that have a certain name and then
all the files in the book.
#target framemaker
// !! first, click on table
var doc=app.ActiveDoc;
//Get the table containing the insertion point
var tbl=doc.SelectedTbl;
//Get the first cell in the first row
var cell=tbl.FirstRowInTbl.FirstCellInRow;
var colNum=3;
for (var i=1; i<colNum; i+=1){
    cell=cell.NextCellInRow;
while (cell.ObjectValid()){
    var pgf=cell.FirstPgf;
    alert (pgf.Name);
    alert(cell);
    cell=cell.CellBelowInCol;// Move down to next cell
