Very nice. I didn't know the Calc function arrange([a, b, c, d], 2) to
get [[a, b], [c, d]]. I always thought that when a TBLFM range spans
more than one row and column like in @address@hidden it should learn to
result in [[a, b], [c, d]] instead of the current [a, b, c, d]. Thanks
for showing how to deal with this.
