asc("A")-64

Why are you wanting to do this exactly? Often, such a question goes toward an action that can be simplified other ways.

We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colours but they all live in the same box.

Please read FAQ222-2244 before you ask a question

... and if you don't need VBA, you can of course do this with the "code" function
=CODE(A1)-CODE("a")+1

Of course, you can also do...
[tt]
=COLUMN(A1)
[/tt]
and get the same result.
