Hi, is there any way to shift cells up/down within a column while leaving remaining columns intact. If not could someone point me in the right direction to any org-functions I could use to help me implement this? -- aleblanc

You can move whole columns and rows around with \M(meta) + direction
keys, however I don't think that there are any functions for moving
individual cells. If you wanted to try to implement this looking at the
column/row moving functions may be a good start.
try \C-h f org-table-move-column RET and then jump to the source code

kill-rectangle (C-x r k) and yank-rectangle (C-x r y) can be very
useful for this sort of thing.

Sorry I can't help here.

Maybe that simplifies the process for a single field a bit? - Carsten > > > best regards, > Kevin Brubeck Unhammer > > > ---- > http://apertium.org Free and Open Source Machine Translation > > > _______________________________________________ > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
