Convert Letter To Number
Jul 23, 2009Is there simple function that anyone knows of (or has written) that will convert a letter to its alpha-numeric equivalent?
For instance, A = 1, B = 2, AA = 27, etc (a = 1, b = 2, aa = 27)

I need to convert a column letter to a column number for the following line of code in my VBA application:
VB:
strAverageBaseFormula = "=AVERAGE(D" & Trim(Str(lngFirstRowOfIncrement + 1)) & ":K" & Trim(Str(lngFirstRowOfIncrement + 1)) & ")"
I am inserting a formula into a cell using VBA, but the problem is that I don't know the letter value of column "K" (used in the middle of the line); instead, I know it as column number 11. Is there a simple way to convert the column number 11 to the column letter "K"?
Some bits of code I have learned use column numbers and some bits use column letters.
Can someone share a line or two that I could add to my macro that will convert the F representing column F into a 6, and vice versa, so that I can continue using my pre-existing bits?
I can obtain the columns numbers but I cannot get the letters. Is there anyway to convert from a number to a letter?
eg. somefunction(1) gives me column(A) as an answer?
I wanted to know if there was a way to either make a variable hold a column letter or else automatically convert a column number to a letter. This would be for use in the Range property.
All I could find is some complicated technique requiring division by 26 that I will never remember let alone code quickly.
Or if you have a variable holding a column number, is the only way to use it with Cells?
I have a drop down menu using data validation and the values are B,C,D
I want to keep the letter in a cell, but make each one become number, so B=5, C=10, D=20
I have another dropo down menu that contains 6,10,16
What I require is that once the 2 drop down menus have 'values selected' I need to multiply the 2 cells together
so for example
If B and 6 was selected, I require the 3rd cell to be 5*6 so what is the formula?
Is there an easy way (without writing my own conversion function) to get the column letter from a range object, as opposed to the column number?

Is there some way to remove the letter and correctly format the value to a negative or positive number on a whole worksheet or column?
Currently I am doing this manually one cell at a time.

I have letter and number combination code in two collumns and they differ for 10.000 numbers:
BAM98314
BAM88314
BAM90000
BAM80000
As you can see the left code is for 10000 numbers higher. the letters are allways the same. In the event that this isn't so, if difference between codes in same row is more or less than 10000 numbers. I was thinking on making conditional formating so the cells with wrong difference would be marked red, but I do not know how to make formula for this difference.
How to translate a specific number into a specific letter related to the number itself.
I have lots of different numbers for example all going down a specific cell (These numbers I want to separate into 3 different catagories. The positive numbers I want to be calculated as the same Letter that is next to that row directly over to the left of that cell.
So if the letter
B / cell / cell / +9 / Then I want if its a positive number like +9 to answer in the formula with the same letter (B) listed to the right in the same row in a different cell of course
B / cell / cell / -6 / Then I want if its any negative number like -6 to answer in the formula as the opposite Letter of (P) listed to the right in the same row in a different cell of course
P / cell / cell / +17 / Then I want if its a positive number like +17 to answer in the formula as the same letter (P) listed to the right in the same row in a different cell of course
P / cell / cell / -3 / Then I want if its a negative number like -3 to answer in the formula as the opposite Letter of (B) listed to the right in the same row in a different cell of course
and thirdly if its a (0) zero and only (zero's) Then I want the answer to stay (0) zero.
The number can be any numbers it doesn't matter. Only distinction is that positive number of +1 and up repeat and stay the same letter that the cell on the far left is already stated.
and all the negative number of -1 amd below all reverse the letter to the opposite letter of (B to a P) or (P to a B) listed to the right in the same row in a different cell of course
and of course (0) zero would be listed as a positive number and only return a (0) zero as the result of the formula.
Is there any way to name cells with same letter but different number?

I am trying to make a formula which will tell me if A1 is a postcode (a letter and a number e.g CV42 6AQ)
In the A column, it looks like this:

PR42 6RD
Etc.
i want it to identify all the postcodes, and NOT "West Yorkshire" because it does not contain a number.
I have a spreadsheet with information in columns a-x. In column A there are part numbers like: RH630-34, PH630-343, 6-255, 16-01, 72500, There are may combinations of just numbers, and numbers first letters second, and letter first number second.
All usually seperated by a hyphen. The entire spreadsheet will be sorted by Column A first.
I need to sort them so the order would be numbers first and combo with number letters next. finish product: 6-255, 16-01, 72500, PH630-343, RH630-34. Is this possible? I have seen other posts and suggesting putting spaces before the numbers. That seems to work but in the case of 6-138 and 6-1038 the 6-1038 is first
