While simultaneously holding down the<Ctrl>,<Alt>, and Shift keys, you

can

highlight a rectangle of text.

I will keep that in mind for people who I am not that fond of, for
people I like I will tell them to just use Alt.

Then, with the rectangle highlighted, press Ctrl-C to copy it

(BTW, you CANNOT right-click on the highlighted rectangle -

right-clicking

will de-select the rectangle).

Right clicking works okay in 2010
