Ho Barry,
Unfortunately you cannot use R1C1-style references with the Range method. This is because the Cells method already covers the situation where you know what the row and column indices are. If you change the cell contents to A1-style references (i.e., A1 and B2 instead of R1C1 and R2C2) then the following can be used:
Range(Range([d2]), Range([f1])).Select
If you must work with R1C1-style references, you will have to write code to parse out the row and column indices and use the Cells method:
Range(Cells(R1,C1),Cells(R2,C2)).Select
Happy computing.

How do I return the text in cells when using ranges?
: : How do I return the text in cells when using ranges? : eg : Range("d2" & ":" & "f1").Select : where "d2"= R1C1 and "f1" = R2C2
