Default go to cell

Cells(Columns.Count, 2).Select
Cells(Rows.Count, 2).Select
shouldnt that go to B2? it goes to B65536

basically what i want is i have a value in "J1" (example 23) and i want is
Cells(Columns.Count, 2).Select
Cells(Rows.Count, Range("tracking!J1".Value).Select

and that would go to B23

thanks in advance

Default go to cell

the syntax for cells() is:

cells(#rows,#columns)

so cells(rows.count,2).select
is the same as cells(65536,2).select
which is column B, row 65536

cells(2,2).select
would go to B2
a less ambiguous example:
cells(3,2).select
would go to B3.

so...

cells(range("tracking!j1").value,2).select
would work.

I find this syntax easier to understand:

cells(worksheets("tracking").range("J1").value,2). select
