Sorry for the misunderstanding, I try to be more explicit. The table within the block =93columnview=94 has been generated automatically from all the entries below =93#+END=94 and was only to give a glimpse of how column view looks like. > I copy / pasted what you wrote (starting with #+BEGIN) and > enabled interactive column view.

I could very we= ll > be missing something here. For the column view only the lines below =93file content:=94 are mandatory. With point on the first line, C-c C-x C-c activates the column view which _adds an overlay to the headings with the values from some properties_, here mainly the album information for the songs. Do a few cycles with S-TAB repeated to get a very first impression. There is much more like editing properties, calculation etc., see: http://orgmode.org/org.html#Column-view http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/5107/focus=3D5134 http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-column-view-tutorial.html Michael
