My bad, I should have googled harder :)
Just out of curiosity: is this limitation there by design, or is it
waiting for some workforce to complete it? I finally just copy+pasted
the columns I needed, but being able to import whole rows/columns
would be incredibly useful.
There is actually now a way to do tis - even though it is
inefficient. To copy column 2 from table FOO into column 3 of the
current table, use
#+TBLFM: $3=remote(FOO,@@#$2)
This is now possible due to a patch by Michael Brand:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/22930
It works well, but it is inefficient because this formula will
parse the FOO table again for each field to be copied.

Hi, Ismael
Hi, I'm new to org-mode and orgtbl, please don't hit me too hard
with
a stick if what I'm asking is retarded :)
well a google search would have shown
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/21439
;-)
I'm using org-mode with orgtbl inside a Latex document. I'm making
extensive use of remote references to other tables inside the
document.
If I reference a cell, for example, with
"remote(results_par,@2$9)", it works as expected,
but if I reference a whole column,
You cannot. This is the answer by Carsten:
"ranges are possible in remote references. However, what
is not allowed it to assign them to a range. On the left
side of equations you can only have single fields
like @2$3 or a column like $3.
So you might ask what the use of range references then
is? You can put the ranges into calc functions like
vsum or vmean, or you can get them as lists in an
elisp formula."
cheers,
Giovanni
