    To Select Adjacent rows or columns
    Drag across the row or column headings. Or select the first row or column; then hold down SHIFT while you select the last row or column.
    and to select
    Nonadjacent rows or columns
    Click the column or row heading of the first row or column in your selection; then hold down CTRL while you click the column or row headings of other rows or columns that you want to add to the selection.
