Fisrt of all thank you Max for your quick answer. This solution, doesn't seem to work, when I try to paset with "p" over my selection, instead of replacing with the values of my new column, vim insert it... I have the feeling I should type a command such withc would be a mix of vertical-selction-"R"-and-"p"...

1. Use Ctrl-V and the arrow keys to block select the text that you want to paste. 2. Yank the text with y. 3. Block select the text that you want to replace. 4. Paste over the selection with the text you copied by pressing p. Of course if the text you copy in is a different number of lines then it won't work properly, but otherwise you should be happy! Max
