Hello

I have a cell selected, but I don't know where it will be and I want to go from it to the cell which is in the same row but in column M. Because of this, I can't use OFFSET(Y,X), because I won't know what X and Y will need to be.

Cheers

Since it's *always* column M, you can hardcode that bit of info into your
formula/code.

As a spreadsheet formula, you could do something like this:
=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(),13))
(But test & adjust that to suit your needs; I'm not very good with
spreadsheet functions.)

In VBA, I'd probably do this:
Cells(ActiveCell.Row, 13).Select

For both VBA and spreadsheet formulae there are other ways; you might want to
do some investigating. Open the "insert function" dialog and search for
"offset" to start.

Thank you, that looks as though it will do very well.
