Thanks Kyle, got it to work this way:
#+BEGIN: propview :cols ((car (s-split " " ITEM)) (s-chop-prefix "gmail:"
(my/extract-email-from-link EMAIL_ADDRESS))) :id "candidates" :match
"testthis" :wrap example
| (car (s-split " " ITEM)) | (s-chop-prefix "gmail:"
(my/extract-email-from-link EMAIL_ADDRESS)) |
|--------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------|
| "Ciara" | "ciaraxxxx@gmail.com"
|
| "Duncan" | "duncanxxxx@indeedemail.com"
|
Thanks a million!
Ian
