Hi Suvayu, thanks for the info. Actually I was looking for a more automatized version. I used #+TBLFM: $1=remote(prf94120_orig, @@#$6) To get the data from one into another table. That works great, but it requires to create a table exactly as long as the original, otherwise all remaining rows of the original table will be silently truncated. I will use org-table-copy-region org-table-paste-rectangle as a intermediate solution and look-out for something which enables me to create as many rows as needed to make the data fit into the target table.
