Default Getting Column *Letters* From Range Objects

I am reasonably new to VB programming for Excel so I must be missing
something - hopefully you can help.

I use a lot of Range objects and I construct them with cell references
i.e. Range("A1"). I tend to create Range objects using the column from
another Range object

It seems I can only get a column *number* from Range objects
(myRange.Column) . This means I have to use a sub-routine I found on
this newsgroup to translate this number to a column *letter* which is
what I need to create another Range object.

I also need column letters for feedback to the user as they deal in
column letters and *not* numbers.

So everytime I work on a new project I have to carry this column number
to column letter conversion subroutine with me - this does not seem
right! There must be some part of the language that will do this for me
but I have not found it.

What am I missing? Am I using Range objects incorrectly? Is there a way
to construct Range objects with column numbers?

Cheers for any ideas.

Chris
