i've got a headache over this. I try to change page numbers into alphabets instead(in Excel 2000). Maybe this sounds insane but my printing will only be a few pages... so the limit of the alphabet range doesn't matter. I can't find any settings I can set to make this thing work. Does any of you know how to do it? using VBA? is there any settings I have over looked? if this even possible? Please help..

change the setting in the footer from the header and footer option as there u must have been entered page of and no of pages. so that mightbe the case you are not able to chang directly from the documents.

Microsoft Word gives you the option of changing the format used for page numbering. Microsoft Excel does not give you this option.

Other than trying your hand at some VBA coding, the only other thing I can think of is to manually add your page number (letter) as a custom footer to each page.
