If I evaluate the form
(org-entry-get (point) "Age" t)
with the point at any heading, I get "25". OTOH, even with
org-use-property-inheritance set to t, column view does not
show it. Ergo, it's a column view bug.
In org-columns-compute, I see
...
(while (re-search-backward re beg t)
(setq sumpos (match-beginning 0)
last-level level
level (org-outline-level)
val (org-entry-get nil property)
...
I suspect the val line needs to be
val (org-entry-get nil property org-use-property-inheritance)
instead.
HTH,
Nick
