The labtalk scripting guide does not really help me much. So I would rather ask here:
What is the labtalk code to highlight a column, say, highlight col(C)?

Thank you for your help!

The WORKSHEET command has a SELECT option as in:
worksheet -select 2 0 2 0; // Select all of column 2
wo -s 1 5 2 10; // Select col 1, row 5 to col 2 row 10

For non-contiguous selection (of whole columns) you can use the colSel method of the WKS object:
wo -s; // de-select all
// following loop selects every other column
for(ii = 2 ; ii <= wks.ncols ; ii+=2)
wks.colSel(ii,1);
}

Oh, This is purely awsome, esp for non-consecutive selection! Thanks a ton, greg.
