Hi,  I had the following text in a table, and hit <tab> in the
bottom-right cell:

| Who |     Amt     |
|-----+---------|
| A   |   36.70 |
| A   |  679.96 |
| B   |  192.31 |
| B   | 2500.03 |
| B   |   74.47 |
| C   |   26.64 |
| D   |   82.00 |
|-----+---------|
|     | :=vsum(@II..@III)       |



This caused CPU usage to peg to 100%, and Emacs to hang until killed.
Probably because of the invalid reference, I guess.

I'm using a fairly recent snapshot of org-mode 7.6, and Aquamacs 2.2 on OS
X Snow Leopard.

  Hi,
  
  '@II..@III' means all rows between the second and third h-lines. In
  your case, this is the same vsum(), so you get a circular reference.
  
  Try @I..@II instead
  
  Regards,
  .j.

    Yeah, I get that, but I was hoping a circular reference (or alternatively
    a seemingly invalid reference, since I have no third h-line) would cause
    an error rather than force me to kill Emacs.

      Right.  This is now the case.  Thanks for bringing this up.
