Hold down the Ctrl key as you click on the files you want to select.
Yes, I can.
No. You need to use the Ctrl key to select non adjacent ranges.
False
The Ctrl key can do it, when used in conjunction with the mouse. You can also use the F8 key to select cells, and using combinations with shift, you can select non-adjacent cells.
The Ctrl key.
Hold down the [Ctrl] key while selecting discontinuous files. Hold down the [Shift] key to select a range (all between the first and second click of the mouse).

To select non-adjacent cells in Excel, hold down the "Ctrl" key on your keyboard while clicking on the individual cells you want to select. This will allow you to select cells that are not next to each other within a worksheet.
An adjacent group of cells are known as a range or a block. There is no particular name for a group of non-adjacent cells.
Contiguous: Immediately adjacent. For example, contiguous sectors on a disk are sectors that come one after the other. Frequently, a file stored on disk can become fragmented, which means that it is stored on non-contiguous sectors. taken from http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/C/contiguous.HTML So one could assume that the difference is that contiguous files are files that are stored immediately adjacent from one another (together) and non-contiguous files are not stored adjacently hence are separated or scattered. Hope this was of some help.
In Excel, an adjacent cell range is the selection of nearby cell range that is touching another range, but is still a separate range. A non-adjacent cell range is the selection of cell range that is not touching any other cell range. In either case, it can only be when more than one range is selected. After selecting one range, pressing and holding the Ctrl key while selecting a range can select another range.
Non-adjacent cells are cells that do not touch each other. Cell A3 and Cell D9 are non-adjacent. A3 and B3 or A3 and A4 would both be sets of adjacent cells.
