I don't understand, James - a column will start with the first cell in it,
i.e. A1 for column A, and a row will start with the first cell in that, i.e.
A6 for row 6.

Are the cell references you quote contained in some other cells as text
values somewhere?

Please explain your requirement more clearly.
