Printing MIDI note names?

Hi folks,
I have a number box that is formatted to display MIDI note numbers as note names (like "36" as "C1"). I'd like to output note names to the Console, not the underlying MIDI numbers.....but the output of the number box is again a number, and that's what I get as an output. Seems like there must be an uncomplicated way to print what's actually displayed in the box (a MIDI note name).....no?

Thanks for any clues!
