Hi All,
I'm hoping this is a simple question. When I open a new excel workbook the columns have number values rather than letters. Does anyone know what switches that on, and how do I switch it off. Any help would be most appreciated!
 
Go to Tools > Options > General and uncheck R1C1 Reference Style.
