Three techniques:

1.
o Highlight B1307.
o Press Ctrl+Shift+End.

This will select the region from B1307 to the bottom right *occupied* 
cell of your sheet. If that selects only columns B and C you can now 
remove the background. If there is material in later columns, hold 
down Shift and press left-arrow repeatedly to reduce the selection to 
columns B and C. Now remove the background.


*But*, you will scream, that doesn't get to the bottom, only to the 
lowest used part of the sheet. But that doesn't matter, as when you 
print the material nothing below that last used part will print 
(unless you have perversely set a print range to make it print). So 
the remaining cells with background are no problem.


2.
Alternatively, in the Name Box (to the left of the Input Line), enter:
B1307:C1048576
and press Enter. You now have the required range selected. Remove the 
background.


3.
Depending on what backgrounds you have in earlier rows that you do 
want, it might be easier to remove the background from the whole of 
columns B and C and reset it in those cells or ranges where you require it.


I trust this helps.

Uh.. are commenting on the other post or do you have the same problem?
Or, are you using two email addresses?

As far as Im aware, there is no keystroke because - how would it know
where the end is.

You can click in the first cell and then while holding shift hit the
down page key and it will make larger jumps.

No; I have data within the above cells in which the background color is 
desired.


Is there a jump-to keystroke that gets me to the very last row?

Method to select multiple columns:rows in Calc

2018-09-11 Thread Vince@GMAIL


I have a Calc sheet in which unwanted background fill color is 
displayed.  The range begins B1307 and C1307 and seems to go the the end 
(wherever that is).  Can anyone suggest an easier method than using the 
mouse to scroll to the "end" starting from B1307:C?


Is there an specific keystroke to jump to the end of a selected column?


Using Windows10-64 desktop and AOO-Calc 4.1.5.

Where are you looking? If you are seeing a drop-down list, I think 
you must be looking in the wrong place!


Go to Tools | Options... | Language Settings | Writing Aids | 
Available language modules. You should see Hunspell SpellChecker there.

It is the first item on the list.  Sometimes lists open in the middle; you may 
have to scroll the list up to see it.
