FYI, I have changed employers and thus no longer have up-to-date paperwork at the FSF for assignment. That is only one reason I haven't updated anything relevant to the orgtbl-sqlinsert procrasti-working hack... A more important reason is that I suspect a method using org-babel would be much better. I was looking for a semi-one-off method to convert a table definition into something within my workflow at the time. Org mode was somewhat new and seemed useful (now proven that it is very useful). I was focused on *my* workflow, but the mindset behind org-babel is more general. I apologize, but I have not had the time to look into adapting the mechanism or pursuing the generalization. -- Jason
