How to get sum from remote table + how to put in bold?

How to get sum from remote table + how to put in bold?

[Fabrice Niessen]

Hello,

I'm trying to build a template for invoices written in Org... exporting
to PDF (and HTML). Will be officially public as soon as it's DONE.

Though, I have 2 problems currently:

- I'd like to sum up, in table `total', the sub-total column of table
  `items'. But the `remote' call does not seem to accept the `vsum'
  expression. Is this a foreseen limitation?  Is there a workaround to this?

- I'd like to get the computed amount (last line of `total' table) in bold (and,
  if possible, even in a bigger font). How is that doable?

ECM:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+TITLE:     Invoice #001
#+OPTIONS:   H:2 num:nil toc:nil

#+LaTeX_CLASS: article
#+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [a4paper,table]
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage{tabu}
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \taburulecolor{gray}

* Items

#+TBLFM: @1$2=remote(items,vsum(@3$7..@4$7);%.2f::@2$2=@1*0.21;%.2f::@3$2=vsum(@1..@-1);%.2f

#+latex: \end{minipage}}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Any hint for me?

I've fixed your ECM:

1. moved attr_latex and other latex stuff to before the names of the
tables and
2. inverted the order of vsum and remote so that you do a vsum over what
the remote function returns.

Seems to work.  See attached.

I confirm that you *did* fix my first problem. Simple, neat, and smart.
Thanks a lot!

Any idea how to solve my problem #2: get the computed amount in bold
and/or in another color and/or in bigger font?

Best regards,
Fabrice

Hi,

I didn't read OP.

Cf. the manual you can use printf syntax,

     http://orgmode.org/manual/Formula-syntax-for-Calc.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc

Thus,

| /Sub-total/  |   6600.00 | \EUR   |
|--------------+-----------+-----|
| /Tax @ 21%/  |   1386.00 | \EUR   |
|--------------+-----------+-----|
| *Amount Due* | *7986.00* | *\EUR* |
#+TBLFM: @1$2=vsum(remote(items,@3$7..@4$7));%.2f::@2$2=@1*0.21;%.2f::@3$2=vsum(@1..@-1);*%.2f*

Hope this was what you were after.
