The insert column routine operation accepts a "Column" reference which can be a column for a different table.


In that case, the column is copied (with formatted) and resized to the appropriate number of rows and inserted into the target table.


This enables copying of formmated columns between tables, use of master formatting tables to dynamically build reports etc. etc.


If the "column" reference is just a scalar number, it copies the indexed column from within the target table.
