org-mode development team,
When generating a clocktable and using the :formula parameter, attempts
to manipulate columns > $9 are unsuccessful.
For example, consider the attached (anonymised) screen-grab of the
output from a clocktable in one of my org files.
As a test, I have used the :formula parameter to create sequential
columns. It works up to and including column 9, but fails thereafter.
No error is generated. Here is the generated #+TBLFM line:
#+TBLFM: @1$4 = (4)::@1$5 = (5)::@1$6 = (6)::@1$7 = (7)::@1$8 =
(8)::@1$9 = (9)::@1$10 = (10)::@1$11 = (11)
This formula works fine on tables that I create myself. It only fails
to work in clocktables.
If this failure can be repeated by other org-mode users, perhaps we
should file a bug report.

It only works if the initial table contains enough columns. Try:
| 1 |
#+TBLFM: @1$1=(1)::@1$2=(2)::@1$3=(3)::@1$4=(4)::@1$5=(5)::@1$6=(6)::@1$7=(7)::@1$8=(8)::@1$9=(9)::@1$10=(10)::@1$11=(11)

Confirmed and fixed. Thank you.
By default, according to `org-table-formula-create-columns', Org ought
to refuse to apply such a formula, which is now the case.
Consider setting `org-table-formula-create-columns' to a non-nil value.
Regards,
