Re: [O] How to apply multiple TBLFM rules?

[Charles]

Mike,

I'm fairly new to Org and did an experiment. Perhaps only one #+TBLFM: 
per table is allowed since the plural is used

15.6 Summary of in-buffer settings
==================================
. . .

`#+TBLFM:'
     This line contains the formulas for the table directly above the
     line.


 #+TBLNAME: test
    | 1 | 2 |    |
    | 4 | 5 |    |
    | 7 | 8 |  9 |
    #+TBLFM: @1$3='(+ 10 7)::@2$3='(+ 11 9)

C-c C-c on #+TBLFM

 #+TBLNAME: test
    | 1 | 2 | 17 |
    | 4 | 5 | 20 |
    | 7 | 8 |  9 |
    #+TBLFM: @1$3='(+ 10 7)::@2$3='(+ 11 9)

I have not explored the org-table.el (yet) for any further elucidation.
