Hi!

i got an vba code from a excel and it calculate out the column number and change it to column name.
but it just 2 chars. in excel we got column name like 3 chars.

example 1 char is only A. 2 char AA and 3 is AAA

i wonder some one can help me with the third char?

here's the formula
Code:
A =      =CHAR(COLUMN() + 64)
AA =    =IF(COLUMN()>26;CHAR(ROUNDDOWN((COLUMN()-1)/26;0)+64)&CHAR(MOD((COLUMN()-1);26)+65);CHAR(COLUMN()+64))
AAA =   ????

and here is the vba code

Code:
    If iCol <= 26 Then
        sColumn = Chr$(64 + iCol)
    ElseIf iCol <= 27*26 Then
        sColumn = Chr$((iCol - 1) \ 26 + 64) & Chr$((iCol - 1) Mod 26 + 65)
    Else
        sColumn = ???
    End If

i need it in formula and code

any help is appreciated
 

Excel Facts

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
formula:
Excel Workbook
EF
2256
3
4IV
5E
Sheet


The same formula in both cells, just examples, one refers to cell F2 for the column number, the other to the column that the formula is in.
