Hi!
I have noticed a few times that sorting tables with C-c ^ does not update
the formulas it contains. This has bitten me quite a bit, so it's good i
have backups :)
Here is a minimal example:
| A | B |
|----+---|
| | 5 |
| | 4 |
| 8 | 3 |
| 6 | 2 |
| | 1 |
|----+---|
| 14 | |
#+TBLFM: @4$1=@2$2+@4$2::@5$1=@3$2+@5$2::@7$1=vsum(@I..@II)
Sorting in column B (between the hlines) with C-c ^ n, moves the lines
around as you would expect, but notice that there are no changes in the
TBLFM line. A C-u C-u C-c * after a sort should not change the values, but
of course it does in this example. The TBLMF line should have been changed
to:#+TBLFM:
@4$1=@6$2+@4$2::@3$1=@5$2+@3$2::@7$1=vsum(@I..@II)
One could also try adding a hline between the 8 and the 6 in the original
table by typing C-c -, assuming no values in the table should change from
it, the formula line should update @I..@II to @I..@III.
I would really appreciate it if someone with more knowledge of the org-mode
guts could have a look at this and come up with a solution :)
