Column formulas do not apply on these headers. See first > paragraph in (info "(org) Column formulas"). I have a few of those, that worked in the past. So I think the behaviour had changed some time in the past year or so. I liked the old behaviour (but it's not super important for me), because it's a bit of a burden to think out table headers if one don't want/need them. Sometimes the headers are wider than the content of the column and makes the whole table wider then 80 characters and empty table headers are aesthetically questionable ;). Regards hmw
