Macro - move active cell to another column; same row

[BLW]

I am writing a macro where it starts off with a (startrow) reference that is
a value in an active cell. The macro inserts new rows and formatings. At
the end I want it to enter a value into the cell two columns to the right of
the (startrow). I am having trouble getting it to select the right cell - it
keeps selecting the (startrow) cell and changing that value.

How do I get it to move to another column with only specifying how many
columns over to move and not an exact column.

As ALWAYS, post your code for comments but

activecell.offset(,8).value="yeah"

Hi BlW,

Try using the Range's Offset property.

For example, try someting like:

Dim myVal as Long

myVal =20

Range(StartCell).Offset(0,2).Value = myVal
