Choose Edit: Select... menu will open Select dialog where user can easily select and hide columns which fit the column label string, or by select N columns and skip M columns.

Since it's a modeless dialog, you can keep this dialog open and keep on doing selection and plotting or analysis. 

Note: if the column label row has numbers, you can even set the >, <, etc. as conditions to select such columns.
