After a bit of digging I found that: - the "can't assign to hline relative reference" message was added by commit a2c71a6e359cb93aa652f65c666294fb2a3b5e1b dated Nov 5th, 2013 - motivations for that patch have been discussed here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/71562 - so I think I suggested something undocumented/unsupported that can't be used anymore, sorry :( - I'd like to express it as a wish for the future: support for hline references ("@I") in the left side of the formula would be a great feature (and it already seemed to work in some special cases, like @I+1$1..@I+1$1) Kindest regards, Andrea
