Hi comment

another ( strange ) workaround:

List ( Evaluate ( Quote ( $v [ Table::Repetition ] ) ) ; Table::SecondValue )

or ( even more strange ):

a ) List ( $v [ Evaluate ( Table::Repetition ) ] ; Table::SecondValue )

b ) List ( $v [ GetAsNumber ( Table::Repetition ) ] ; Table::SecondValue )

c ) List ( $v [ Table::Repetition + 0 ] ; Table::SecondValue )

Right. Obviously there is a problem with the order of evaluation when the expression is enclosed in List().

And now that I have put it this way, I have remembered this:
