Hi Johan, You can't attach metadata such as tags to table rows. Two things come to mind. 1. If you just want the table for visual purposes (as opposed for doing calculations with it), then you could use column-view. I.e. you would have a subtree for groceries and a subtree for car; categories such as date, note and sum would be stored in properties. http://orgmode.org/manual/Column-view.html#Column-view Visibility cycling works in column view so you can group and ungroup the rows. [is there anyway of creating a normal Org table from a column view "table"?] 2. org-babel: If you're happy with a suitable supported language, then store the category label in a column and you can transform the master table however you want. R would be a convenient language for working with a table like this.
