Hi there,
I'm trying to refer to the row number of a remote table, using the current
column number shifted by one.
Remote Table:
#+NAME: my-table
| Header1 | Header2 |
|---------+---------|
| a | 23 |
| b | 7 |
| c | 13 |
| d | 66 |
| e | 5 |
|---------+---------|
| Result | 42 |
Table where remote value should be inserted:
...
#+TBLFM: @1$3..@1$7= remote(my-table,@$#$2)
My problem is, that this remote reference starts in row 3 (because of @$#),
however, I'd like to start in row 2 (that means @$#-1). However, this
relative reference does not seem to work here.
Any idea what command I can use here?
Thanks!
Best, Volker

Calculation within the field reference of Org is not supported but
subscr of Calc can be used to pick calculated references from a range:
#+NAME: my-table
| Header1 | Header2 |
|---------+---------|
| a | 23 |
| b | 7 |
| c | 13 |
| d | 66 |
| e | 5 |
|---------+---------|
| Result | 42 |
| x | y | 23 | 7 | 13 | 66 | 5 |
#+TBLFM: @1$3..@1$7 = subscr(remote(my-table, @2$2..6$2), $# - 2)
(To show the intermediade step:
| x | y | [23, 7, 13, 66, 5] | [23, 7, 13, 66, 5] |
#+TBLFM: @1$3..@1$4 = remote(my-table, @2$2..6$2)
)

Thanks, Michael, for this helpful workaround!
