I'm not sure which version you are on, but this works in J1.5:
You have 2 options available. Edit the template HTML and add a placeholder inside your column:
HTML:
<div id="maincolumn">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="mycustommod" />
this will place "mycustommod" at the top of the "maincolumn".

Another way, which is better if you think it might move around in the column is to create an new Article (or whatever type you show in that column), and add the placeholder to the raw code.
HTML:
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="mycustommod" />
NOTE: to use this method it is recommended that you set your editor to NONE in your user profile.

Now all you should have to do is assign the new module to "mycustommod". (you may need to type it in manually the first time)

This MAY work in J1.0, you will just need to use the PHP placeholder code that is native to that version. I'm pretty new so I've only worked with J1.5.

I would recommend the first option, I think it's a better method.
Hope that helps...
