How to select/cut/paste a column in Eclipse
However, there is a plugin called Columns for Eclipse, which implements this functionality. I installed it, and it seems to work well. Note, this plugin didn't work with Java version 1.4.2. If you use this version, the icons and menu will install nicely, but you will get the error message: "The chosen operation is not currently available" when trying to use a feature. I installed Java 1.5 from http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp and everything worked great after that.
