Default Column Number/Letter

? cells(2,28).Address(0,0)
? cells(2,28).Address(0,0)
AB2

? "=Sum(" & union(cells(3,5),cells(11,2),cells(20,8)).Address( 0,0) & ")"
=Sum(E3,B11,H20)

or
? "=Sum(" & union(cells(3,5),cells(11,2),cells(20,8)).Address & ")"
=Sum($E$3,$B$11,$H$20)


I don't think I have ever come across an instance where I had to parse out
the column letter.

Ladies & Gentlemen,

Is there an easy way to get activecell.column to return a
letter(s) rather than a number?

The reason I'm asking is that I would like to do the
following:

activecell.value = "=sum(AA1,AB2,AC3)"

My problem is that I have the "AA", "AB", and "AC" as
numbers rather than letters.

What about converting "Cells(2,28)" into AB2?

Is there a better methond of summing a "broken range"?

Thanks in advance,

David Fixemer
