Default Referring to cells

Dim rng as Range
Dim rng1 as Range
Set rng = Worksheets("Indata").Cells.Find("Date", LookIn:=xlValues)

-----------------------
With Worksheets("Indata")
set rng1 = .Range(rng,rng1.End(xldown))
End With
msgbox rng.Address, rng1.Address
----------------------


rng.offset(1,0)
is the next cell below the header

rng.offset(0,1)
is the next cell the right of the header

negative numbers are up and left

I am writing a macro that with the use of some code creates charts of some
data avaliable on a spreadsheet. My problem is that the cells that are to be
used for the charts are different every time. I do not know how to refer to a
cell "variably". The problem is that I search the spreadsheet for certain
texts and when found I want them to be e.g. headlines in the chart.

Set rng = Worksheets("Indata").Cells.Find("Date", LookIn:=xlValues)

This cell e.g. how do you refer to it or cells in the same row/column etc.?
rng.Address gives you the adress. but howe.g. loop something with it? what i
want to know is is there any way to get the adress from a cell in a format
that you e.g. can add 1 to the rows or columns?
