Subject: Basic Question: Effort Sum
Date: Wed, 8 Dec 2010 18:02:52 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTinH5rtuhjSTH3yEymoUnALGXULPVasy0BZq2g2w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I have a dynamic table that gives me a list of the items in a file
and their effort estimates.  I'd like to either
1) Have org-mode sum the effort for me, much like the CLOCKSUM feature
or
2) Write a simple calc function and manually put it into the table to sum
the first column which contains the effort estimates.

Here's a sample file:
#+COLUMNS: %08Effort(Est.){+} %40ITEM(Task) %7CLOCKSUM(Clocked)
* Effort Summary Table
#+BEGIN: columnview :hlines 1 :id global
#+END:
* Task 1
:PROPERTIES:
:Effort: 4:00
:END:
* Task 2
:PROPERTIES:
:Effort: 3:00
:END:

I can't seem to find the correct syntax for the range of an entire column.
I've tried using something like this:
#+TBLFM: @2$3=vsum(@4$1..@3$1)

But I haven't been able to sum the entire column.  Can anyone help?

Thanks,
--Nate
