Hi @KR300 

 

You can select multiple columns by holding the CTRL key on the keyboard and selecting the column you need or using the choose column features in Power Query.

Note: the green box is selected columns using CTRL key, the red box is unselected column.

Not sure what you mean by "Short Cuts". 

 

To select a range of contiguous columns

  • Select the first column in your range by clicking on it with the mouse
  • Hold down ctrl+shift
  • Select the last column in the range
  • Release ctrl+shift

If that doesn't work, you may have a hardware problem.

 

Alternatively,  select the Choose Columns button on the Home menu, then Choose columns from the dropdown and select the relevant columns.
