Dear Org users!

I would like to have the following functionality: I have a table like
this:

   | number1 | number2 | description |
   |---------+---------+-------------|
   |       1 |       1 | a           |
   |       1 |       2 | b           |
   |       1 |       3 | c           |
   |       1 |       4 | d           |
   |---------+---------+-------------|
   |       2 |       1 | aa          |
   |       2 |       2 | bb          |
   |       2 |       3 | cc          |
   |       2 |       4 | dd          |
   |---------+---------+-------------|
   |       3 |       1 | aaa         |
   |       3 |       2 | bbb         |
   |       3 |       3 | ccc         |
   |       3 |       4 | ddd         |
   |---------+---------+-------------|

I would like to generate number1 and number2 rows automatically (so when
I insert something the numbering will be okay), is this possible?  Well
I know it is, but is it possible within the current org table framework?

Thanks in advance, Richard.

This is currently difficult because of a bug in org-mode
in the treatment of fields that have a field formula assigned,
but also are in a column with a column formula.  This bug
will be fixed in the next version, and then you can do:

  | number1 | number2 | description |
  |---------+---------+-------------|
  |       1 |       1 | a           |
  |       1 |       2 | b           |
  |       1 |       3 | c           |
  |       1 |       4 | d           |
  |---------+---------+-------------|
  |       2 |       1 | aa          |
  |       2 |       2 | bb          |
  |       2 |       3 | cc          |
  |       2 |       4 | dd          |
  |---------+---------+-------------|
  |       3 |       1 | aaa         |
  |       3 |       2 | bbb         |
  |       3 |       3 | ccc         |
  |       3 |       4 | ddd         |
  |---------+---------+-------------|
#+TBLFM: 
$1=@-1::$2=1+@-1::@2$1=1::@2$2=1::@6$1=2::@6$2=1::@10$1=3::@10$2=1

Make sure that you insert new rows with Org-mode commands, not by hand.

With this setup, C-u C-c C-c will update the table and fill rows 1 and 
2.

Hope this helps

- Carsten
