How can I make a fillable table that allows me to select text in bulk yet retains tab over ability?

I'm working on a form in livecycle and am trying to make a form which is easy for my client to fill out and easy for me to extract the data from.

 

Basically I am desiging a form that my clent fills out by entering data into 4 X 3 table (four rows, three columns).  In this form they will put names in the first column,  countries in the second column, and account numbers in the third coloumn.

 

While this is not too hard to do, what I would really like to do is make it so that when I extract this data from the form I can easily select all the names in the first column at once, all the countries listed in column two at once, and then the same for column three. I'm placing this data into a word file for use in a mail merge table, so it just streamlines it all if I can highlight everything in one column at once rather than having to select every name/country/account number separately. (And before I get criticized for being lazy, haha, I will be duplicating this 4X3 table at least 7-8 times, as each table will have information specific to other criteria in the form.)

 

I've realized that Adobe doesn't seem to let me bulk select text in multiple text boxes, yet because I'm working with a table I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing that would allow me to do this, or perhaps there's even another better way to do this job.

 

Thank you for your help and I apologize if this is a bit confusing!
