You can close bugs yourself by injecting "done" into the email address
for the bug; in this case, sending to 66213-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org

I've added to the TO line, so I believe that should close the bug.

Hello,

On this page https://orgmode.org/manual/Advanced-features.html
it says

- '!' :: The fields in this line define names for the columns, so that you
may refer to a column
         as '$Tot' instead of '$6'.

However, when I experimented with this I found that the first of the
following two tables works (in that the empty cells are filled in
correctly), but the second doesn't (the only difference is the replacement
of $4 with $c3 in the second table):

|---+----+----+----|
| ! | c1 | c2 | c3 |
| # |  1 |  2 |    |
| # |  3 |  4 |    |
|---+----+----+----|
#+TBLFM: $4 = $c1 + $c2

|---+----+----+----|
| ! | c1 | c2 | c3 |
| # |  1 |  2 |    |
| # |  3 |  4 |    |
|---+----+----+----|
#+TBLFM: $c3 = $c1 + $c2

Is this a bug?

I'm using Org mode version 9.7-pre (release_9.6.9-797-g4d0f89)

Thanks,

Paul
