Hi, Press VO-shift-back slash, then arrow down once. VO will announce "Column", press return. When in the Column Headers, VO-space on the column you wish selected in its entirety. Back out of the headers with VO-shift-back-slash and Stop Interacting with the Table. If you bring focus back to the Table without Interacting with it, VO should read so many rows, so many columns and announce that that many rows are selected. If you wish to format these selected cells, go into the Formatter area and do so. If you Interact With the Table, the selected cells should remain selected as long as you don't move to a different cell. If you wish to move around within the table, turn Cursor Tracking off with VO-shift-f3.
