Default Find values in table and return row/column name

Hi,

I am really desperately looking for help with this Excel problem I have.

I have a large 2-dimensional table, that contains unique IDs in the row and
column headers.The data in the table is a largely zeros, with a few values in
between. The structure is basically as follows:

ID A B C D E ....
1 0 0 0 0 20
2 20 0 0 0 80
3 0 0 0 0 0
4 100 0 0 0 0

In a second sheet, I have copied the first column of the table, i.e. I there
have a list of all vertical IDs. Now I am looking for a way to return for
each row the letter of the column that has a value 0 (which could be
multiple ones).

The result should be something similar to this (anything close would be
helpful, too):
1 E
2 A E
3
4 A

Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance for your help - much appreciated!

Best,
Frank
