I know I can use $1=remote(original, @@#$6) to copy row 6 into row 1 (albeit I did not yet fully understand the @@# part) However, I would to take care that the target table has the same amount of rows as the host table. I work with many tables at the moment and frighten I might overlook a row soon or later. Thus, I would prefer a way to say... copy column of table X into table Y. If table Y has to less rows, add blanks rows until all rows of table X are copied. Any chance to get this working?

I know I can use $1=3Dremote(original, @@#$6) to copy row 6= into row 1 (albeit I did not yet fully understand the @@# part)
H= owever, I would to take care that the target table has the same amount of r= ows as the host table.
I work with many tables at the moment and frighten I might overlook a= row soon or later.
Thus, I would prefer a way to say... copy colu= mn of table X into table Y. If table Y has to less rows, add blanks rows un= til all rows of table X are copied.

Any chance to get this working?

Thanks for help and = ideas
