Default How can I convert a group of numbers to a group of letters?

How would that work on a digit-by-digit basis, to convert, for example, "256"
to something like "CFI"? (Assuming that A B C D E F G F I and J stood for
0-9)

A VLOOKUP table would probably do the trick.

See Excel help on VLOOKUP or go to Debra Dalgleish's site for "real" help.

My store uses a retail price "code" wherein a price like 99 in expressed as a

Is there a function to do this automatically?
