I do not understand how I can reference tables (only the first one?) in remote files. The manual says: Remote references ................. You may also reference constants, fields and ranges from a different table, either in the current file or even in a different file. The syntax is remote(NAME-OR-ID,REF) where NAME can be the name of a table in the current file as set by a `#+TBLNAME: NAME' line before the table. It can also be the ID of an entry, even in a different file, and the reference then refers to thefirst table in that entry. REF is an absolute field or range referenceas described above for example address@hidden' or `$somename', valid in the referenced table.= = ======================================================================remote(FILENAME,REF) does not seem to work. All the tutorials I found are either too basic or too advanced or too general.
For tables in a different file, the remote table must be the first table in an outline node, and the outline node must have an ID property.
First configure org-modules and turn on the id module. Then prepare your target file like this * here is my table :PROPERTIES: :ID: DDE64190-0C3D-4088-A303-DA3B60ECEB48 :END: and here we have the table. |...|...|...| The ID can be an arbitrary string, but then you must make sure yourself that it is globally unique. Or you can have Org-mode make the ID for you. Hope this gets you on the way. - Carsten
