Formula to return the name of a cell
 

I am trying to write a formula that will look at a cell and if it is not
blank then it will return the cell name (rather than the cell value).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
Adrianne

If you mean cell address by cell name then

=IF(ISBLANK(A1),"",CELL("ADDRESS",A1))
will return $A$1 if A1 is not blank.

Try...

=IF(A1<"",CELL("address",A1),"")

...which will return $A$1, or try...

=IF(A1<"",ADDRESS(ROW(A1),COLUMN(A1),4),"")

...which will return A1.

Hope this helps!
