Title: Re: R1C1
Take advantage of the 'get address' command:
set myVariableNumberOfCells to 12
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
set endAddress to get address (cell myVariableNumberOfCells of row 1) without row absolute and column absolute
range ("A1:" & endAddress)
end tell
--> range "A1:L1"
If you don't mind seeing the "$L$1" absolute terminology (it's just going to be the same range anyway) save yourself some typing:
set myVariableNumberOfCells to 12
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
set endAddress to get address (cell myVariableNumberOfCells of row 1)
range ("A1:" & endAddress)
end tell
--> range "A1:$L$1"
(If you really want to ensure absolute cells, use "$A$1" yourself.)
