Why not paste them in two adjacent columns, then copy them from there.
Later you can clear the temporary copy.

If you select column A and D in Excel and copy them into the Clipboard
you will see that there are actualy four columns A, B, C, D in the
Clipboard. (I use Clipbrd.exe to view the clipboard).

Does anyone knows workarround for it? I want to paste the columns into
my own program, but not all of them, just the selected. I have noticed
that even Word Paste command works this way. Yet maybe someone has
already solved this problem.

Thanks
