Default How could my column labels become numbers instead of letters???

I am working on a finance document with about 40 columns by over 100 rows. I
don't know how but the column titles now read as numbers instead of letters.
I have tried beginning a new document with the same data, but this too has
now changed (overnight).
does anyone have any ideas how this occured??

In xl2003 menus, it's:
Tools|Options|General Tab|Uncheck R1C1 Reference style

Excel picks up this setting from the first workbook you open in that session.
