Hi Eric, The addition of the :conds parameter to org-collector, the first example you provided (the one that zeroed out the amount for all items not food) now results in 1 rather than 0 in the headings. (Example below.) Thanks for taking a look at this. Best, Matt * Example #+BEGIN: propview

2008-12-07 Thread Matthew Lundin
I often use dynamic blocks to save/export column views in org-mode files. Does anyone know of a similar way to export/save a column view from the agenda? When I write the agenda to a file, it naturally writes only the text (not the column overlay). Regards, Matt
