Hi Ian,

quoting the manual:

  Remote references
  .................
  
  You may also reference constants, fields and ranges from a different
  table, either in the current file or even in a different file.  The
  syntax is
  
       remote(NAME-OR-ID,REF)
  
  where NAME can be the name of a table in the current file as set by
  a `#+NAME: Name' line before the table.  It can also be the ID of an
  entry, even in a different file, and the reference then refers to
  the first table in that entry.  REF is an absolute field or range
  reference as described above for example `@3$3' or `$somename',
  valid in the referenced table.

For remote references in other files, you need to use entry IDs,
not tables names.  At least this is how I understand it.

HTH,
