Hi,
How can I figure out which cell is selected when a selection occurs? I
can easily figure out which row it is, but how do I figure out which
column it is?

Nevermind, I found the solution. You could get the x, y coordinate from
the event, and then check to see whether it is in the bounds of the column.

Please note that a row can be selected using the keyboard and in this case
you do not have the x and y coordinates to determine a cell. That is why
the selection event does not have x and y coordinates. In the native table,
you are not selecting an individual cell but rather a row.

If you want to select a cell, take a look at TableCursor:
