title: ActiveCell.Offset Confusion
body: <p>I was reading some VBA in a previous module somebody had written and came across something that confused me:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Sheets("Setup").Select
  Range("Start").Select
  ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I was wondering how the ActiveCell.Offset(column,row).Range().Select line worked. In this case the "Start" range is a cell, A18, and the offset offsets it by one row, that much I get. But I'm not following how or what the Range("A1") is being inserted to do here. </p>
  
  <p>Wouldn't</p>
  
  <pre><code>Sheets("Setup").Select
  Range("Start").Select
  ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>work just the same and be less confusing? Is there any reason the Range("A1") clause is inserted?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks so much, and sorry for the beginner question. </p>
