I've got a table named FOO with the column ("Porc" |- 3 7 15 50 15 7 3) and I'm copying the numbers to another table, shown below. I'm doing it the hard way, cell for cell, but I was wondering if there is a way to copy that range of the remote table (A2 to the bottom) in a single command.

Thanks

It seems your answer is in the org-mode manual:

$3 = remote(FOO, @@#$2)

copy column 2 from table FOO into column 3 of the current table For the second example, table FOO must have at least as many rows as the current table. Inefficient for large number of rows.

A Kind of Corollary: Copying all fields in a given row

So just as:

$3 = remote(FOO, @@#$2)

copies all the fields from a given column (col2) into column three of the new table, then:

@3 = remote(FOO, @1$$#)

copies all the fields from a given row (row1) into row 3.

There's something about how this standard reference form @r$c interacts with the @# and $# notation that makes this seem a bit abstruse. e.g. this is all the org manual has to say about this remote reference syntax:

@# and $# can be used to get the row or column number of the field where the formula result goes.

Umm…?

Posting this example here because I found it all a bit mystifying and hope this helps some else save a few minutes when dealing with rows and tables in the awesome org-mode
