When I do this, I first create a blank column on the spread sheet. Then I select the entire column with control-spacebar and copy it to the clipboard. Then paste it into the new column. Moving columns is a little temperamental. I often have to do it twice before it takes. Ther is a message I often get telling me that the size or shape or format (or something) of what I am pasting is different from that of the area I'm pasting to. Recopying/repasting sometimes helps. A column doesn't like to be pasted starting on a row other than the first, which may just cause you a real stinkin challenge. Glad you're brave!
