Default column selection or row selection using shortcut keys

Hi all,

Is there any way to do column selection using shortcut keys instead
of using mouse drag?

Put the cursor in the top cell of the column. Then hold the Shift key while
you use the Down Arrow key to go to the bottom of the column.

If the column is more than a few lines long, though, it's quicker to
position the mouse cursor above the top cell so it turns into a black
downward-pointing arrow and left-click once. This will select the entire
column even if it spans more than one page.
