Hi Eric
Thanks for your question.
You can highlight multiple ranges by using the Ctrl key, for example, if you click over column B to select it, then hold down the Ctrl key and click to the left of row 6 to select it, you should find that both column B and row 6 will be selected.
If you wish to select the whole spreadsheet, use Ctrl + A.
