Default Why are my Excel columns numbered and not alphabetized (A..ZZ)?

Opening up Excel the other day, I noticed that the spreadsheet columns were
numbered (1..n) instead the normal alphabetized (A..ZZ). This seems to be a
general setting that I do not know how got changed and thus can't change
back. Any ideas?

Tools Options on the 'General' tab uncheck 'R1C1 reference style'
