Especialy once there are simple maths within a table something I have for my 
client is a separate form of the same table which is a csv with header row of 
column names and each row as a comma delimited record.

If we could have a copy to clipboard button that copies any table to csv users 
can take data generated in their tiddlywiki database and paste into a 
spreadsheet app for more complex calculations.

I and my business clients do this kind of thing a lot. One trick is to past the 
csv into its own data worksheet and have a second report or analysis sheet that 
does a lookup to the data sheet. It is then simple to update the spread sheet 
with current data without touching the report or analysts sheet. 

Perhaps one day I will make it possible to re import the csv to tiddlywiki and 
apply changes.

While I like the idea tiddlywiki can do everything it makes sense to let it 
delegate functionality to built for purpose tools like excel.

With a set of calculations available in tables we reduce the need to go 
external to tiddlywiki but to be able to quickly go external allow people to 
use the best tool to do the job, and leverage user skills in their existing 
tools.

I would like us to adopt this approach more often.

Tony
