Hi again,
I was wondering, is there a way to copy the entire column of one table into
another possibly adding rows to the target table to make it fit?
I know I can use $1=remote(original, @@#$6) to copy row 6 into row 1
(albeit I did not yet fully understand the @@# part)
However, I would to take care that the target table has the same amount of
rows as the host table.
I work with many tables at the moment and frighten I might overlook a row
soon or later.
Thus, I would prefer a way to say... copy column of table X into table Y.
If table Y has to less rows, add blanks rows until all rows of table X are
copied.
Any chance to get this working?
Thanks for help and ideas
Torsten
