Columns

 

Hello, my Excel columns and rows are both numbered.  How do I change the columns back to letters.

 

Thanks

    Hi Brandon

     

    In a more elaborate description to what Dan has correctly said, try this out:

     

     

    1. Click onto the File tab.

    2. Click onto Options.

    3. Click onto Formulas.

    4. Untick R1C1 reference style.

     

    Hope that helps!

     

    Cheers

    In the 'Options' of Excel, you have set the formulas to use the R1C1 reference - disable that, and you get the column letters back.
