Default Columns are Numbers

I have an excel sheet that is listing the Columns as Numbers. How do I
switch this to being letters so the cells are listed as I35 rather than R35C9

Go to Tools Options General tab uncheck R1C1 reference style

In xl2003 menus:

Tools|Options|General tab|Uncheck R1C1 Reference style.

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

If you have a co-worker who likes R1C1 Reference Style and you're unlucky enough
to open a workbook that he saved as the first workbook in that session, you'll
be making the same change again.
