Hi, everybody,

GNU Emacs 22.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-09-06 on SOFT-MJASON
I found an unexpected behaviour, a bug ?, in TBLFM
(well I've already reported it in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2009-01/msg00252.html
but I didn't provide a report clear enough;
ah, the importance of proper bug reports ;-)

I);%.1f
BUG :
A column can't be referred with its name,
if it is left hand side of a formula.
(Please try changing $6 with $Tot in the first formula )
Well I don't know if this is a bug or a constrain in
the implementation.
This being the case I think it should be
documented in the manual in the section (Field formulas) like:
"The left hand side of a formula may also be a named field,
but not a named column"
I have documented this limitation, thanks for the report.
