Default Releative Cell vs Absolute cell

Is there a way to return the Releative Cell value vs the Absolute Cell
Value?

I am using the following syntax:

current_row = Selection.Address
MsgBox(current_row)

And the results a $A$1 (example)

Thanks,
mb

Address property as it applies to the Range object.
Returns the range reference in the language of the macro. Read-only String.
expression.Address(RowAbsolute, ColumnAbsolute, ReferenceStyle, External,
RelativeTo)
expression Required. An expression that returns one of the above objects.
RowAbsolute Optional Variant. True to return the row part of the reference
as an absolute reference. The default value is True.
ColumnAbsolute Optional Variant. True to return the column part of the
reference as an absolute reference. The default value is True.
ReferenceStyle Optional XlReferenceStyle.
XlReferenceStyle can be one of these XlReferenceStyle constants.
xlA1 default. Use xlA1 to return an A1-style reference.
xlR1C1. Use xlR1C1 to return an R1C1-style reference.

External Optional Variant. True to return an external reference. False to
return a local reference. The default value is False.
RelativeTo Optional Variant. If RowAbsolute and ColumnAbsolute are False,
and ReferenceStyle is xlR1C1, you must include a starting point for the
relative reference. This argument is a Range object that defines the
starting point.
Remarks
If the reference contains more than one cell, RowAbsolute and ColumnAbsolute
apply to all rows and columns.
