x = ActiveCell.Address gets the variable loaded for the original cell.
Range(x).Offset(0, 1) is one column to the right of the original cell.
Range(x).Offset(-1, 0) is one row above the original cell, unless the
original cell was on row 1, in which case you get an out or range error.
etc.
If you are using the select and activate style of code writing then
Range(x).Activate will take you to the original cell.

User selects a cell and then hits a hot key to run a macro. I need the macro
to note that cell range, do some manipulations, then return to that cell and
run some offset copy/pastes from there. The offset part works fine, but in
the process of the first manipulations we're failing to return to the
original cell to then run the offsets from there. I figure if I set a
variable for the original cell, then I can return to that cell after the
first manipulations. But I don't know how to set a variable for the active
cell range, and don't know how to later return to (activate/select) the range
of the variable.
