[Orgmode] How to Calculate duration time in Table ?
Hello, I have a table in org which stores the date, I'm wondering if there is any function to calculate the duration? For example: | Start Date | End Date | Duration | |++--| | 2004.08.07 | 2005.07.08 | | I tried to use B-C, but failed ... Thanks!

Try the following: | Start Date | End Date | Duration | |++--| | 2004.08.07 | 2005.07.08 | 335 | #+TBLFM: $3=(date($2)-date($1)) See this thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/7741 as well as this post (which is really a followup on the above): http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/7753 The problem that this last article pointed out was solved in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/8001 and Chris Randle's original musings are at http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/6536/ HTH, Nick ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Thanks for doing that. The only problem is that the TBLFM line has been stripped, so it's not clear *what* the solution is, unless one follows the link to the message. Would it work better if I had quoted the above (e.g. boxquote or the gnus message method)? Thanks, Nick ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
