By coincidence just today I had the same need to move or rotate columns left/right, without affecting the other rows above and below. Because I need this repeatedly I wrote two in-row functions derived from org-table-move-column, without the need anymore of splitting and joining the table like above. It supports only the direction left/right. The direction up/down Gustav asked for would be harder to implement but as a workaround you can still transpose http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html#transpose-table and use the in-row left/right. from another thread: On Mon, Nov 21, 2011 at 14:31, Daniel Martins <daniel...@gmail.com> wrote: > The feature of remove/add cell is quite important.

If I understand right and only for left/right, the in-row functions cover that too: - remove: first blank the field with "C-c Space" (org-table-blank-field) and then rotate in-row left - add: rotate in-row right and replace the field content, before this step append new columns if required For more see "Change the column sequence in one row only" on Worg hacks: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html#column-sequence-in-row Michael
