Hello, is there a function in Excel VBA that returns
alphabet representation of column number?

For example,
1 = "A"
26 = "Z"
27 = "AA"

Thank you in advance,
Kpark

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
I found it.
Code:
MyColumnLetter = Left(Cells(1, 45).Address(1, 0), InStr(1, Cells(1, 45).Address(1, 0), "$") - 1)

Try
Code:
columnLetter =Replace(Cells(1, columnNumber).Address(False, False, xlA1, False), "1", vbNullString)

Just a note....

You can use column NUMBERS in VBA..
There's no need to convert them to letters..

Use Cells instead of Range
Cells(Row#, Column Number OR Letter)

Range("A1")
Same as
Cells(1,1)
Same as
Cells(1,"A")


Hope that helps.
