Hi,

address ? For example, I need to know the that the column letter for
Cell(7,1) is G.

Thanks

Hi Jean

One way for Excel 2000 and on:

Function GetColumn(Cell As Range)
'Leo Heuser, 23.7.2006
GetColumn = Split(Cell.Address, "$")(1)
End Function


Sub test()
MsgBox GetColumn(Cells(1, 7))
End Sub


An example of a worksheet formula would be:

=SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1,7,4),1,"")

Just replace 7 by the column number.
