Default address

What is the use of the address function, I've not been able to use it
within another formula? The only thing it dose that I can see is that
it tells the person reading the spread sheet where to look. Am I
doing something wrong or is this function near to useless?

You talking about in Excel or in VBA? I'm assuming Excel.
The Address worksheet function does nothing but give you the absolute
address of a cell. If you want to use an address located in a cell
within a formula, have a look at the INDIRECT function.
