title: How do you select a rectangular region of cells in a Word Table
body: <p>Given something like</p>
  
  <pre><code>Table table;
  Cell cell_1 = table.Cell(2,2);
  Cell cell_2 = table.Cell(4,4);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to select (or highlight) from cell_1 to cell_2 (like how you would if you were doing it by hand).</p>
  
  <p>I originally thought that doing the following would work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Selection.MoveRight(wdUnits.wdCell, numCells, WdMovementType.wdExtend)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But according to <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.word.selection.moveright%28v=office.11%29.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.interop.word.selection.moveright%28v=office.11%29.aspx</a> under remarks, using wdCells as the Unit will default the WdMovementType to wdMove, and I can't think of a workaround.</p>
