Hello list,
This code does not work because of automatic conversion from string to
number in org-babel-read-table.
#+TBLNAME: table_test
| name | id |
|-------+-----|
| name1 | 034 |
| name2 | 135 |
| name3 | 1B5 |
#+NAME: code_test
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var table=table_test
(setq myv "")
(dolist (line table myv)
(unless (eq line 'hline)
(setq myv (concat myv ";" (mapconcat 'identity line ",")))))
myv
#+END_SRC
I would like to have this result :
#+RESULTS: code_test
: ;name,id;name1,034;name2,135;name3,1B5
Is there any possibility to deactivate this conversion as with
inhibit-lisp-eval for lisp forms ? Or better is there any way to chose
conversion parameters on a column to column basis ?
François.

I found a workaround changing the table to :
#+TBLNAME: table_test
| name | id |
|-------+-------|
| name1 | "034" |
| name2 | "135" |
| name3 | 1B5 |
but I think inhibiting number conversion could nevertheless be useful
in a number of situations.
François.

Not that I know of. But you can redefine org-babel-read-table to omit
the conversion:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-babel-read-table ()
(org-table-to-lisp))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and redefine it back afterwards:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-babel-read-table ()
"Read the table at `point' into emacs-lisp."
(mapcar (lambda (row)
(if (and (symbolp row) (equal row 'hline)) row
(mapcar (lambda (el) (org-babel-read el 'inhibit-lisp-eval)) row)))
(org-table-to-lisp)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Disgusting, no?

Disgusting and fantastic. How about taking it one step further...

This code block defines the == form used to read table references
without conversion. Eval this first.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent
(defmacro with-simple-tables (ref)
`(flet ((org-babel-read-table () (org-table-to-lisp)))
(org-babel-ref-resolve ,(symbol-name ref))))
#+end_src
* Original Example
#+TBLNAME: table_test
| name | id |
|-------+-----|
| name1 | 034 |
| name2 | 135 |
| name3 | 1B5 |
#+NAME: code_test_orig
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var table=table_test
(format "%S" table)
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS: code_test_orig
: (("name" "id") hline ("name1" 34) ("name2" 135) ("name3" "1B5"))
and now without conversion
#+NAME: code_test_simplified
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var table=(with-simple-tables table_test)
(format "%S" table)
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS: code_test_simplified
: (("name" "id") hline ("name1" "034") ("name2" "135") ("name3" "1B5"))
