This doesn't seem to be working anymore for me. If I press the key that reformats. The table will reformat if you press the enter key at the end of the line (after "work?") without typing the closing bar "|". Pressing enter *inside* any cell will reformat the table and move down to the next cell, but not if you're outside of the grid. Also, C-c C-c anywhere within the table block (even if outside of the grid, as in your example) will reformat, keeping the cursor in its current position. -- Chris Randle ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

But I guess that is not what you need. -- Manish ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] odd table behavior
I haven't used tables much so please forgive me if this is a dumb question.
