    Lightbulb Vertical character list in alphabetical order - more fine and shorter

    Hi Excel Guru's,

    I've formula which making vertical character list in alphabetical order. It works, but I would like to have more fine "code".
    It seems it is not finesse. (for me of course )

    Preconditions:
    1. no vba
    2. all in one formula
    3. without additional "help" columns, etc.
    4. can be placed in any cell

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    BTW. If it will take level ZZ the next step will be wrong. I can put 64 times IF function into formula above but this is not what I want.

    Any ideas?

    regards
    sandy

    Can't really say that I have a clear idea of what exactly you trying to do.

    =LEFT(ADDRESS(1,ROWS(A$1:A1),4),LEN(ADDRESS(1,ROWS(A$1:A1),4))-1)&")"

    Hi AlKey,

    Thanks for answer and shorter formula

    Some people (especially management) treat Excel as text editor, i.e. Word. That is why, no more, no less.

    Ups, I was lazy...
    Thank you ALL Jonmo1, sourabhg98

    Re: Vertical character list in alphabetical order - more fine and shorter

    Try this
    =SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1,ROW(),4),1,"")&")"
    or
    =(LEFT(ADDRESS(COLUMN(),ROW(A697),4,1),SUMPRODUCT(MAX(((26^(ROW($1:$3)))+(26^(ROW($1:$3)-1))<ROW())*ROW($1:$3)))+1)&")")
