inverse of the column function? i.e. input a number, output the corresponding column text label
I doubt if anyone would call this more elegant... hell, it probably isn't
even as efficient... just different.
=REPLACE(ADDRESS(1,A1,2),FIND("$",ADDRESS(1,A1,2)) ,9,"")

in A1
=column(D2)
would return the number 5. I want the reverse of that.
e.g.a function that would when pointed at A1, returns the text "D"
This beast does the job, but is there are more elegant way?
=LEFT((ADDRESS(1,A1,2)),((FIND("$",(ADDRESS(1,A1,2 ))))-1))
