| Select Columns in a Spreadsheet |
| See Also |
This menu can be used to select columns within a spreadsheet to enable a action to
be done on all the selected columns, or example editing their attributes, copying
the cell contents on to the clipboard. The selected columns are displayed with the
flag Sel beside the column name.
Columns may be selected also by using the mouse and clicking on the column name.
A column selection can be extended using the Shift and left or right arrow keys
or the Shift and Home or End keys.
The selected columns are displayed in the spreadsheet with reversed colours (e.g.
white on black, if the default colours are being used).

keys with the left mouse click, or using the shift key with up and down keys)
and then clicking either the Select or
Unselect buttons.
