What is the purpose and how far do you want to go left and down on the sheet
with those names?

I get a formula under column AC, INDIRECT("AC"&591+1) in cell AC593.
When I copy this cell to the right under column AD, the character does not
change as I copy this cells into another location. does anyone have any
suggestions on how to display the column within Indirect function?

This is what responded to your question below;

Use this in cell AC593
=INDIRECT("R591C"&COLUMN(),FALSE) + 1
and copy across

This will add 1 to AC591

You can have numbers 1-whatever in Col of Sheet2 and A-Z,AB-AZ in Col B
and use this in A1 Sheet 1 and copy across Row1
=VLOOKUP(Column(),Sheet2!$A:$B,2,False) in

take this:

=SUBSTITUTE(CELL("address",A1),"$","")

put his on cell a1, copy it to anywhere and it will work accordingly.

no fuss no mess

=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(CELL("address",A1),"$",""),"1","")

Will remove the both the $ and the 1.

=SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1,COLUMN(),4),1,"") is a shorter version, and will
display the column number only. What do you mean the 0-9 numbers, what are
you trying to accomplish?
