Michael As mentioned in my emails a while ago, @ still evaluates to the number of rows in the current table (from where the reference is being made) instead of the number of rows in the remote table being referenced. http://imgur.com/4W75H Sincerely, -- Sankalp

Turns out it was indeed the issue. I was working on one of the machines where I still had an older version of org. Thanks, --- Sankalp
[O] Using last row in remote table references
Hello all, Should I be able to use @ in references to remote tables? For example in the tables below I would expect the results table to show cde as the result of both formulas. #+TBLNAME: TEST1 |---+---| | a | f | | b | g | | c | h | | d | i | | e | j | |---+---| #+TBLNAME: RESULTS |--| | Formula test | |--| | cde | | abc | |--| #+TBLFM: @2$1='(concat remote(TEST1, @3$1..@5$1))::@3$1='(concat remote(TEST1, @3$1..@$1)) Is there a syntax I should be using if I want to get all the entries in a table below a certain row without explicitly entering the number of the last row? Thanks in advance Phil Mason
