Is it possible to copy and paste, (or export) just 1 or 2 columns from Base 7.3.7.3 to Calc spreadsheet?

I really don’t want to have to export the whole file to calc and then delete everything except certain columns. Easier way?

I use a simple sql-query:

SELECT col1, col2 FROM table;

then I copy the result. As this is often repetitive: You can drag a query to the Spreadsheet, and save the spreadsheet. To repeat this to get current data you select refresh from menu data in your spreadsheet and your columns will be updated.

As villeroy linked his tutorial in another thread, it might also help you:
