There are a few ways. One way would be:
set higherCell to get offset (active cell) row offset -1
If you need to you can then check on its coordinates by:
set {r, c} to {first row index, first column index} of higherCell
Very, very cool. I wondered if lack of R1C1 would mean that =OFFSET()
functionality would be built in, and it does! I guess MS is now
working hard to redeem themselves in the eyes of Mac people. Who
knows, I might even upgrade to Office 2004... (not that I use the
apps more than a couple times a year, though). I wonder if Word's
handling of graphics is any better...

Heh....work in a windows shop sometime...their tools for protection from the
stupid.
LOL. Well, I was just referring to "our" platform. (The encroachment
of Windows was one of several reasons I quit my cushy job at
Stanford.)
