Hello,

After logging some clock time, I used the normal key combination, C-u C-c
C-x C-u to update my timesheet tables, and received this error message.

org-update-dblock: Symbol’s function definition is void:
org-dblock-write:CLOCKTABLE

This message is returned also from manually calling the function.

Org mode version 9.3 (release_9.3 @ /usr/share/emacs/27.1/lisp/org/)
GNU Emacs 27.1 (build 1, x86_64-suse-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.22, cairo
version 1.16.0)

Well, after recovering from my horror at losing my timesheets for a day's
work, I was able to track down the problem: the function is case sensitive.
At some point, (apparently) I fat-fingered a key combo & upcased the mode
line for two tables. After returning them to l-case, all worked as it
should.

I dunno - should the function be case insensitive?

I love this tool. Now that my pulse has returned to normal. Once, it even
saved me from unpleasant interviews in my manager's office.

Thanks.
