Thanks! I found that I can also assign an ID to the section, and then use # eval: (progn (org-id-goto ...some-id...) (org-babel-execute-subtree)) It looks like I need the progn for it to work reliably (don't know why). I am wondering if it would be possible to break a line in Local Variables, but # eval: (progn (org-id-goto ...some-id...) \ # (org-babel-execute-subtree)) didn't work. Best, Tamas
