* [bug] removing last column with a column formula

Hello,

Let's consider the following table:

#+begin_src org
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
#+TBLFM: @2$1..@2$3=@1
#+end_src

If I remove the second column (M-S-Left), the formula is correctly
updated. But when I remove the last column, the formula gets partly
deleted and becomes:

                            #+TBLFM: @2$1..

Also, if this times, the first column is removed, that line becomes:

                      #+TBLFM: @2$INVALID..@2$2=@1

This is with latest Org and no user configuration.

Regards,

  Hi Nicolas
  
  Columns and rows are better referenced with "<" and ">" in many cases
  to avoid such oddities:
  
  #+begin_src org
  | 1 | 2 | 3 |
  | 1 | 2 | 3 |
  #+TBLFM: @2$<..@2$>=@1
  #+end_src

    Thanks for the pointers.
    
    Though, the object of my message was more to point at a strange
    behaviour that, perhaps, should be tackled down, someday.

  Is this something that we can (easily) fix?  
  
  Thanks!

    Not easily.  I have made it throw an error now, but there may be
    other situations like this which are not yet captured.
    
    Michael Brand has pointed out correctly that if you want to use
    ranges the go to the border of the table, you should use
    $< and $>
    
    Cheers

      Throwing an error in this case is already an improvement -- thanks 
      for this!
