The COLUMN function returns the column number of the given cell reference. For example, the formula =COLUMN(D10) returns 4, because column D is the fourth column.

Syntax

COLUMN([reference])

The COLUMN function syntax has the following argument:

• reference    Optional. The cell or range of cells for which you want to return the column number.

  • If the reference argument is omitted or refers to a range of cells, and if the COLUMN function is entered as a horizontal array formula, the COLUMN function returns the column numbers of reference as a horizontal array.

    Notes: 

    • If you have a current version of Microsoft 365, then you can simply enter the formula in the top-left-cell of the output range, then press ENTER to confirm the formula as a dynamic array formula. Otherwise, the formula must be entered as a legacy array formula by first selecting the output range, entering the formula in the top-left-cell of the output range, and then pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to confirm it. Excel inserts curly brackets at the beginning and end of the formula for you. For more information on array formulas, see Guidelines and examples of array formulas.

  • If the reference argument is a range of cells, and if the COLUMN function is not entered as a horizontal array formula, the COLUMN function returns the number of the leftmost column.

  • If the reference argument is omitted, it is assumed to be the reference of the cell in which the COLUMN function appears.

  • The reference argument cannot refer to multiple areas.

Example

In Excel, column headers are represented by a letter A, B, C, … And when we reach column Z, the next column is AA.

And so on until you reach the final column; XFD. This means column number … 16384 😲😲😲

But how to find those numbers? There is two methods.

Method 1: Change column headers from general options

1. Go to the File menu
2. Then, you open the Options menu
3. Then you go to the Formulas section.
4. And there you check the option Reference Style R1C1

Reference R1C1 means that each cell is identified by numbers. And then, the columns headers are numbers

FYI, you should know that it was the only way to identify the cell references in the first Excel version. Fortunately, the letters for identifying columns were added later to make cell references easier to read 😉

This method isn’t the one I will recommend because not only the column headers have changed, but also the reference in your formulae.

As you can see, it’s not easy to understand such a formula and nearly impossible to visualize the absolute or relative reference

Method 2: Use a formula to display the column number

But the simplest technique is to use the COLUMN function 😀👍

=COLUMN()

And that’s it! This function returns the column number of the cell where is the formula. This function doesn’t need argument.

In this example, we know that our table contains 44 columns (46 — 2)

The ROW() function isn’t so helpful because it is enough to read the row number directly in the row headers.

При работе с таблицами довольно часто требуется произвести нумерацию столбцов. Конечно, это можно сделать вручную, отдельно вбивая номер для каждого столбца с клавиатуры. Если же в таблице очень много колонок, это займет значительное количество времени. В Экселе есть специальные инструменты, позволяющие провести нумерацию быстро. Давайте разберемся, как они работают.

Способы нумерации

В Excel существует целый ряд вариантов автоматической нумерации столбцов. Одни из них довольно просты и понятны, другие – более сложные для восприятия. Давайте подробно остановимся на каждом из них, чтобы сделать вывод, какой вариант использовать продуктивнее в конкретном случае.

Способ 1: маркер заполнения

Самым популярным способом автоматической нумерации столбцов, безусловно, является использования маркера заполнения.

1. Открываем таблицу. Добавляем в неё строку, в которой будет размещаться нумерация колонок. Для этого, выделяем любую ячейку строки, которая будет находиться сразу под нумерацией, кликаем правой кнопкой мыши, тем самым вызвав контекстное меню. В этом списке выбираем пункт «Вставить…».



2. Открывается небольшое окошко вставки. Переводим переключатель в позицию «Добавить строку». Жмем на кнопку «OK».



3. В первую ячейку добавленной строки ставим цифру «1». Затем наводим курсор на нижний правый угол этой ячейки. Курсор превращается в крестик. Именно он называется маркером заполнения. Одновременно зажимаем левую кнопку мыши и клавишу Ctrl на клавиатуре. Тянем маркер заполнения вправо до конца таблицы.



4. Как видим, нужная нам строка заполнена номерами по порядку. То есть, была проведена нумерация столбцов.

Можно также поступить несколько иным образом. Заполняем первые две ячейки добавленной строки цифрами «1» и «2». Выделяем обе ячейки. Устанавливаем курсор в нижний правый угол самой правой из них. С зажатой кнопкой мыши перетягиваем маркер заполнения к концу таблицы, но на этот раз на клавишу Ctrl нажимать не нужно. Результат будет аналогичным.

Хотя первый вариант данного способа кажется более простым, но, тем не менее, многие пользователи предпочитают пользоваться вторым.

Существует ещё один вариант использования маркера заполнения.

1. В первой ячейке пишем цифру «1». С помощью маркера копируем содержимое вправо. При этом опять кнопку Ctrl зажимать не нужно.



2. После того, как выполнено копирование, мы видим, что вся строка заполнена цифрой «1». Но нам нужна нумерация по порядку. Кликаем на пиктограмму, которая появилась около самой последней заполненной ячейки. Появляется список действий. Производим установку переключателя в позицию «Заполнить».

После этого все ячейки выделенного диапазона будет заполнены числами по порядку.

Способ 2: нумерация с помощью кнопки «Заполнить» на ленте

Ещё один способ нумерации колонок в Microsoft Excel подразумевает использование кнопки «Заполнить» на ленте.

1. После того, как добавлена строка для нумерации столбцов, вписываем в первую ячейку цифру «1». Выделяем всю строку таблицы. Находясь во вкладке «Главная», на ленте жмем кнопку «Заполнить», которая расположена в блоке инструментов «Редактирование». Появляется выпадающее меню. В нём выбираем пункт «Прогрессия…».



2. Открывается окно настроек прогрессии. Все параметры там уже должны быть настроены автоматически так, как нам нужно. Тем не менее, не лишним будет проверить их состояние. В блоке «Расположение» переключатель должен быть установлен в позицию «По строкам». В параметре «Тип» должно быть выбрано значение «Арифметическая». Автоматическое определение шага должно быть отключено. То есть, не нужно, чтобы около соответствующего наименования параметра стояла галочка. В поле «Шаг» проверьте, чтобы стояла цифра «1». Поле «Предельное значение» должно быть пустым. Если какой-то параметр не совпадает с позициями, озвученными выше, то выполните настройку согласно рекомендациям. После того, как вы удостоверились, что все параметры заполнены верно, жмите на кнопку «OK».

Вслед за этим столбцы таблицы будут пронумерованы по порядку.

Можно даже не выделять всю строку, а просто поставить в первую ячейку цифру «1». Затем вызвать окно настройки прогрессии тем же способом, который был описан выше. Все параметры должны совпадать с теми, о которых мы говорили ранее, кроме поля «Предельное значение». В нём следует поставить число столбцов в таблице. Затем жмите на кнопку «OK».

Заполнение будет выполнено. Последний вариант хорош для таблиц с очень большим количеством колонок, так как при его применении курсор никуда тащить не нужно.

Способ 3: функция СТОЛБЕЦ

Можно также пронумеровать столбцы с помощью специальной функции, которая так и называется СТОЛБЕЦ.

1. Выделяем ячейку, в которой должен находиться номер «1» в нумерации колонок. Кликаем по кнопке «Вставить функцию», размещенную слева от строки формул.



2. Открывается Мастер функций. В нём размещен перечень различных функций Excel. Ищем наименование «СТОЛБЕЦ», выделяем его и жмем на кнопку «OK».



3. Открывается окно аргументов функции. В поле «Ссылка» нужно указать ссылку на любую ячейку первого столбца листа. На этот момент крайне важно обратить внимание, особенно, если первая колонка таблицы не является первым столбцом листа. Адрес ссылки можно прописать вручную. Но намного проще это сделать установив курсор в поле «Ссылка», а затем кликнув по нужной ячейке. Как видим, после этого, её координаты отображаются в поле. Жмем на кнопку «OK».



4. После этих действий в выделенной ячейке появляется цифра «1». Для того, чтобы пронумеровать все столбцы, становимся в её нижний правый угол и вызываем маркер заполнения. Так же, как и в предыдущие разы протаскиваем его вправо к концу таблицы. Зажимать клавишу Ctrl не нужно, нажимаем только правую кнопку мыши.

После выполнения всех вышеуказанных действий все колонки таблицы будут пронумерованы по порядку.

Урок: Мастер функций в Excel

Как видим, произвести нумерацию столбцов в Экселе можно несколькими способами. Наиболее популярный из них – использование маркера заполнения. В слишком широких таблицах есть смысл использовать кнопку «Заполнить» с переходом в настройки прогрессии. Данный способ не предполагает манипуляции курсором через всю плоскость листа. Кроме того, существует специализированная функция СТОЛБЕЦ. Но из-за сложности использования и заумности данный вариант не является популярным даже у продвинутых пользователей. Да и времени данная процедура занимает больше, чем обычное использование маркера заполнения.
