   Huh?  Yes, it is possible.  In fact in OO2 it would *not* have been 
possible since you could only set a single selected row.

   In OO3 you can use the new 'select' command to select columns, rows 
or a cell.  Some examples that should work:

	select every row whose topic contains "foo"

	select last column

	select cell "Topic" of first row whose state is unchecked

   You can also modify the selection with:

	add every row whose topic contains "foo" to selected rows
	remove every row whose topic contains "foo" from selected rows
