I don't know if XEmacs is different in this than GNU Emacs, but with GNU 
cutting and pasting columns is called rectangle editing.

;;Code lifted from http://emacro.sf.net:

(define-key global-map [(control shift button1)]
		 'mouse-track-do-rectangle)	;select

(define-key global-map [(control shift button2)] 'yank-rectangle)  ;paste

(define-key global-map [(control shift button3)] 'kill-rectangle)) ;cut

;;You can see this in the EMacro beta's ediff code.
Try the scroll-all.el or follow-mode.el libraries (may be misspelled)
