Hi,
when using values (time/duration) from a remote table I sometimes get
funny values:
#+name: teta
| 4:50 |
| 2:25 |
#+TBLFM: @1$1=remote(teta,@1$1)
When I set e.g. 7:50 in “teta” the same value shows up in the second
table (after C-u C-c C-c).
For 1:00 in “teta” I get #ERROR in the second table. same in all cases
with a 0 in front (04:50, 07:50, 01:00).
Org-version is 9.2
Any ideas?
Thanks and best regards
Robert

It seems they are treated as (calc) fractions and simplified.

Note that x:y in Emacs calc (which is what org uses for the spreadsheet
elements of tables) is a ratio so 4:50 *is* the same as 2:25.
If you have times, you'll need to use different notation (@,',", I
believe).

It seems you need the 'T' flag here, as described in "Duration and time
values" in the org manual:
#+TBLFM: @1$1=remote(teta,@1$1);T
