Thank you, @gawa!  This was a tough one.

I leveraged the solution from @RolandSchubert  with a single macro.  Thank you both, @gawa  and Roland, for sharing your expertise on this.

A quick edit to the solution I just submitted: you can convert 'Integer to Letter' input to a macro input - this way, you can update this reference table at anytime without having to modify the macro :)

Honestly, I had no freaking idea about this one. I appreciate the examples of other bases but didn't get from the examples how the answer was derived - typical human. Thankfully there are plenty of other posted solutions to piggyback off of!
