Select cells

Is there any way to select multiple cells (instead rows)... for example I want to select in the column 2 the rows 3,4,5 and 6.

It should look like this:
___ ___ ___ ___
|___|___|___|___|
|___|___|___|___|
|___|___|___|___|
|___|___|***|___|
|___|___|***|___|
|___|___|***|___|
|___|___|***|___|
|___|___|___|___|
