It's a form of offsetting, it will take the row after the last non-empty row
found. It is similar to

FirstRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Range("A2").Row

Tom, I have not seen the use of the (2) like this before.

FirstRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)(2).Row

How does this work? (1) is the last row, and (0) is next to last row??

Hello!

I am trying to create a section of macro to find the first row of data
from
the bottom of the sheet up, select one row down from the ActiveRow to
the
end
of the sheet, then Clear the content of the selected rows. The row
location
of the data is always different.

I have tried the folowing, but it does not work. I would greatly
appreciate
help!

Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Rows("1:65536").EntireRow.Select
Selection.Clear
