I am writing a macro where it starts off with a (startrow) reference that
is
a value in an active cell. The macro inserts new rows and formatings. At
the end I want it to enter a value into the cell two columns to the right
of
the (startrow). I am having trouble getting it to select the right cell -
it
keeps selecting the (startrow) cell and changing that value.

How do I get it to move to another column with only specifying how many
columns over to move and not an exact column.
