Highlighting (Just) A Column ?

[Robert11]

Hello:

I copied a page from a site that has numbers and text like:

243.0 Logan Airport
342.8 Bradley Airport
etc.

I then pasted it into Word, and deleted the text, so that I now have just a
column of numbers.

I wish to Paste this column into a program that accepts numbers in a
column.

But whenever I hightlight the numbers column that I have in Word, I cannot
just hightlight the numbers.
Rather, it highlights the numbers column just fine, and Also most of the
page to the right.

Won't just highlight the numbers column. No idea why.

How can I just highlight the numbers column, please ?

Thanks,
Bob
