You can use CellReference#toString() to get the alpha-numeric cell
location.

<code>
        CellReference cref = new CellReference(1,2); // row, col
        System.out.println(cref.toString());
</code>

        Prints out: C2


If you simply want the Column however, you may want
to check out the implementation in the CellReference.java
for the method: convertNumToColString
The method is private, but should give you the idea.
